Senior Pet Health Checks

Wild cats live up to 8 years with an average lifespan of 5 years. Stray dogs live up to 10 years with an average lifespan of 8 years. Our loved pets live much longer, but in their advanced years may suffer from age-related conditions. In many cases we can treat these problems to make these β€œold” years β€œhappy” years and keep them younger, longer! The sooner problems are diagnosed, the sooner treatment is started and the more we can help!

 

As pets age, they can become prone to developing certain types of diseases:

Regular checkups with your veterinarian will help detect any health problems early

The earlier these problems are identified the more can be done to help.
This is where Cambridge Vets can help.
We can provide a more pro-active approach to senior animal care through an individualised wellness programme for your pet.

Remember, pets age about 7 times faster than humans, so a trip to the vet once a year for your pet is like a trip to the doctors every 7 years for us.

Providing optimal care for Senior Pets:

  • Intervention will be of more benefit if instituted early
  • Promotes early detection of abnormalities (even in the apparently normal pet)
  • Promotes individualised medical care to enhance quality & length of life
  • Acknowledges & enhances the human-animal bond

Hi, meet Bruno! 🐾🐢
It was an absolute pleasure hanging out with this cool dude today. His teeth are now pearly white and we loved looking after him and being able to support him with a Thunder coat and an Adaptil sprayed bandana to help him set his insecurities aside.
These days, Bruno's life is a far cry from the first two years of not having his needs met. After a short stint at the SPCA, Bruno found his furever home with mum Tracey. Now, each day after a lovely long walk, he can be found asleep in the sun or under the desk as Tracey works from home. How cool that Bruno is living his best ever life and enriching the lives of all who meet him! Stay amazing Bruno! πŸ₯°πŸΎ
