The Golden Paws Feline Senior Care Program is a program designed for cats that are seven years old and older. Each six months, your cat will come in for a routine physical exam by one of our veterinarians and a number of different diagnostic tests (urinalyses, blood pressure, ECG, fecals, blood work, eye exams and x-rays). These exams and diagnostic tests will help detect problems in your senior pet before they appear or become serious. The other emphasis of the program is preventative care and wellness. This part focuses on nutrition, weight management, and dental hygiene.
The cost of this preventative healthcare program is not expensive, and many of the tests and costs have been greatly reduced to make this program possible for all senior pet owners. We do offer a pre-payment plan for all clients interested in joining this program. Call our office for more details.
It is estimated that your cat ages five to seven years for every one of yours, which suggests that health problems in your pet can progress at a faster rate. Therefore, we recommend more frequent exams for pets 7 years of age and older. Thanks to advances in disease detection and treatments, with the right veterinary care, your cat's senior years can be healthy and happy. There is no better time to be a senior cat, so call and set up an appointment for your senior cat today!
