As your cat turns 13-14 years old, he is now classified as a senior cat. As your cat ages, he will experience physical, mental, and physiological changes that will require some form of special care from you, so he will be more comfortable. In order to be able to provide for his needs suitably, you should learn to watch out for tell-tale signs of the ageing process.

Some of the distinct physical signs that are manifested by a senior cat include poor hearing, thinning hair, decreased vision, lesser endurance and increased risk of dental and health problems.

Caring for a senior cat can be a challenge for many pet owners. However, when you know what are dealing with, caring for your pet and providing for his needs will be much easier.

Any changes in your senior pet’s behavior or routine should prompt a consultation with your veterinarian Indianapolis.  Visit this link for more information.
