CAT PREVENTIVE CARE

Nurturing Health and Long-Term Wellness with Cat Preventative Care

What is involved in a cat preventative care program? 

A comprehensive cat preventative care program encompasses regular veterinary check-ups, vaccinations, parasite control, dental care, and a balanced diet tailored to your cat's needs.

Recognizing the significance of preventive measures in ensuring your cat's well-being, we provide a wide range of comprehensive preventive care services for our feline patients and their caregivers. Our cat preventive care program encompasses annual or semi-annual physical examinations, continuous health and wellness education, blood and urine analysis, vaccinations, parasite control, dental care, and a recommended balanced diet that is tailored to your cat’s needs. 

What does my vet check during my cat's annual exam? 

You should try to schedule an annual exam every 12 months and, starting at 10 years old, add a semi-annual wellness exam every six months. During these comprehensive physical assessments, your veterinarian evaluates key aspects of your cat's health, covering vaccination status, parasite control, dental health, nutrition, exercise, ears, eyes, internal organs, behavior, coat and skin, and metabolic function through blood work. The findings guide our discussions, recommendations, and collaborative efforts to maintain your cat's peak health.

What treatments do cats need regularly? 

Regular treatments include vaccinations, parasite prevention, dental care, and a balanced diet. These ensure your cat remains healthy and happy throughout their life.

How to prevent and detect cancer in cats? 

Regular veterinary check-ups are crucial for early cancer detection. Watch for signs like unexplained weight loss, changes in appetite, and abnormal lumps. Report any concerns to your vet promptly.
