You want to be there for your pet, and you know she needs you day in and day out. This is particularly true now that she is entering into her senior years. How can you address her new needs?

Talk to your cat’s veterinarian so you can determine what changes are likely to happen in your pet and when. This way you can anticipate them and help her cope with them. For example, if you know she is likely to experience mobility issues, you can gradually move her belongings to a more concentrated area and offer her new ways to get to favorite places, like steps to get up onto the couch instead of leaving her to jump up. Be vigilant, and address changes in her capabilities and preferences as you notice them. Your local licensed Webster NY vets can help you offer your pet a wonderful place to call home.
