Geriatric Care for Senior Dogs & Cats

For pets to maintain a high quality of life in their golden years, they require routine preventive veterinary care and early diagnosis.

Proactive care can help lengthen your cat or dog's good health and life as they age, so they must visit their vet regularly for routine wellness exams, even if they appear to be healthy. 

Our veterinarians are available to help geriatric pets in Milledgeville stay in optimal health by finding and treating arising health problems early, and providing early treatments while we can still effectively and easily manage their condition.

Typical Health Problems

As a result of the improved dietary options and high-quality veterinary care, companion cats and dogs are living much longer today than they ever have before. 

While this is news to celebrate, pet owners and veterinarians are now encountering more age-related problems than they have in the past as well.

Senior pets are generally prone to these conditions:

Veterinary Care for Seniors

Our vets implement a comprehensive examination of your senior cat or dog, ask detailed questions about their home life, and conduct any tests that might be needed to get additional insights into your pet's general physical health and condition. 

Depending on what we find, your vet will recommend a treatment plan that could consist of medications, activities, and dietary changes that might help improve the health, well-being, and comfort of your senior pet. 

Routine Wellness Exams

Preventive care plays an important part in helping your senior cat or dog live a healthy, happy, and fulfilled life. It also provides our vets the chance to detect any diseases early. 

Early detection of disease can help preserve your animal companion's physical health and spot emerging health issues before they turn into long-term problems.

With regular physical examinations, your cat or dog will get their best chance at quality long-term health.
