Senior Cat Comfort & Care

72

I play; therefore, I am

Cats and people are similar in many ways, including the huge positive impact that movement has on the aging process — physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Your senior kitty is going through changes. Many of those changes can be hard on them. Mobility will decrease, meaning your hunter can’t “hunt” the way they used to. Mental faculties can be strained, limiting their ability to problem-solve and learn new things. And the stress of these changes can weigh on your cat’s emotional health.

One of the very best ways to minimize these impacts and improve your senior kitty’s quality of life is to keep them active. Whatever your cat’s mobility challenges, there are ways to engage their bodies and, in turn, their minds without pushing them too far. It’s worth it!
