When it comes to feline health, every detail matters! Cats are masters at hiding symptoms of illness, which makes preventative care even more crucial. Vaccination is not just a recommendation, but a protective shield against potentially serious illnesses.
Start with the vaccination schedule: vaccinations against rabies, feline leukaemia, panleukopenia and other diseases are essential. Each vaccine acts like an invisible shield, protecting your four-legged companion from serious health threats. But don’t stop there! Regular veterinary appointments are true wellness consultancies.
During these check-ups, vets can identify problems even before they become symptomatic. Blood tests, weight checks, a dental assessment and a full check-up help to ensure that your feline is in the best of health. Deworming every three months complements this care, eliminating worms and parasites that can compromise the immune system.
If your cat is over 8 years old, keep an eye out for potential urinary/kidney problems, as this is usually the most critical age for this type of problem. Talk to your vet to anticipate problems and know how to identify behaviours that stand out!
Remember: prevention is priceless.
Every vaccination, every consultation, every moment of care is an investment in your furry friend’s longevity and quality of life! 💕🐾
