Looking after an older cat

You have been spending time with your cat for many wonderful years and you are happy to be able to be with her in her senior years as well. How can you look after her at this time in her life?

Your pet needs you to care for her needs in the same way that you always have but alter things as her needs begin to change. It will likely be a gradual process, so you will need to take note of differences in your pet’s behaviors and capabilities so you can change your care in turn to match these. Understand that there are going to be things that you won’t be able to see as well, like the need for a different food that will cater to her aging body. Your local veterinary clinic Isle of Palms, SC can help you better understand your pet.
