A yearly physical exam is a helpful tool in maintaining your cat’s health. This valuable face-to-face time allows us to discuss diet and nutrition, behavioral problems and your cat’s general health and well-being. This will also allow for early detection of issues that may be avoided with preventative measures.

Flea and heartworm prevention (such as the application of a topical medicine once a month) is much easier than treatment after the fact. If left untreated, fleas can lead to worse problems like skin disease and (in severe cases) anemia. Currently, there is no cure for heartworms in felines leaving prevention as the only option.

Obesity is a major health issue that continues to grow among felines in the U.S. Obesity can leave your cat predisposed to diabetes, joint disease, skin issues and other health problems. We will offer guidance regarding your cat’s diet and nutrition needs so that your fur-baby leads a long, healthy, happy life under your care.

Food allergies, inflammatory bowel disorder, renal disease and geriatrics disease are just a few situations that require specialized diet programs. If your cat falls into the senior category, he or she may also need specialized nutrition advice. We are happy to assess your cat’s particular needs and make recommendations.
