Thankful that your older pet has moved beyond the phase of chewing or scratching furniture, you now may be facing a new set of issues associated with an aging cat or dog. 

Diminished eyesight, cataracts, arthritis, skin disorders, food allergies, behavioral problems and cognitive dysfunction or senility are many of the common ailments that affect older cats and dogs.

As animals age, their organs begin to operate less efficiently – some vets believe animals experience up to a 30% loss of functioning of most body systems. Poor diet, environmental pollutants and the natural aging process are to blame.  But the future doesn’t have to be so bleak for your old friend.  You can help him live out his senior years happy and healthy!

How You Can Help

While you can’t stop the aging process, you can help your dog or cat stay healthy and perhaps prevent serious diseases that can shorten their life.

  • Exercise and a healthy diet are more important than ever.
  • Yearly check-ups are key to detect the early signs of disease and begin treatment programs before the disease has a chance to advance. 
  • Many veterinarians recommend a daily multivitamin formulated for older dogs and cats because senior animals do not absorb nutrients from their food as efficiently as they once did.
  • Antioxidants are also important to reduce the damage caused by cell oxidation – a factor in the onset of many chronic conditions.
