Arthritis is a common ailment in many senior cats like the Bombay cat? If your cat appears to be slowing down in his daily routine due to muscle soreness or stiffness give your vet a call to set up an appointment. Your vet may prescribe a Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAIDs) for your Bombay cat especially if she has arthritis and other joint and muscle pain. You may decide; however, not to give your Bombay NSAIDs, but to instead request all natural organic supplements and herbal remedies to relieve the inflammation instead. Holistic vets tend to look to dietary deficiencies and toxins present in the cat as a cause of inflammation and often prescribe a complete detox and diet change. Other vets suggest adding supplements such as Glucosamine, Omega Fatty Acids, Vitamin E, Selenium, and MSM to the diet to decrease inflammation. Talk with your vet Durham, NC to learn more.

Heartworm tests are typically conducted once a year to determine the presence of heartworms in cats like the British Longhair. If you’re not sure if your cat has been tested, ask your vet. Unlike dogs, there are no specific medications designed to treat heartworms. In fact, heartworm disease often goes undiagnosed in cats because cats generally carry one to two heartworms compared to a dog that can carry hundreds. In addition, cats do not carry adult heartworms and therefore do not show symptoms in the same way that dogs do. It is vitally important that your British Longhair is tested for heartworm disease on a yearly basis. In addition, your cat should be on a monthly heartworm prevention program. For cats, prevention is the best and the one of the only options for heartworms. Heartworms in cats can also cause HARD or a respiratory disease. Talk with your veterinarian Plano, TX to learn more.
