Diseases can be stopped or slowed before they debilitate your cat. Your cat depends mostly on you for her life and good health. It is imperative that you work closely with your veterinarian to get the education you need to keep your pet aging gracefully. Prevention first started when you adopted your cat and began taking her to your veterinarian on a yearly basis. The vaccinations your cat has received throughout her lifetime has kept her from getting calici virus, rhinotracheitis, rabies and other very dangerous diseases.
Good nutrition is an essential part of prevention.
Her yearly exams have enabled us to catch and treat problems early on. They've helped her immeasurably. Essentially, by following our advice, you have prevented your cat from obtaining life threatening diseases and have allowed her to age gracefully by your side. When your cat reaches the age of 12 or 13 years, he is considered a feline senior citizen, a geriatric cat, and the need for prevention becomes paramount. We will continue to work with you to create a program of proper diet, vaccinations, dental care, a program of health maintenance.
