Improvements in pet care and advancements in veterinary medicine have helped cats and dogs live well into their golden years. As they age, they need extra TLC and health care tailored for older pets. 

At Bayside Animal Hospital, we love providing outstanding, compassionate care for your pets throughout their lives, and in this blog, our team shares wellness tips and insights on common issues in senior pets to help you provide the best senior pet care possible for your furry family member.

Responsible pet owners make a profound commitment to take care of their pets for life. While it may seem impossible to think about the senior years of a puppy or kitten, it’s worthwhile to pursue long-term health and wellness from their earliest months. As pets age, certain health conditions can become more prominent. We encourage owners of senior pets to maintain two wellness visits a year in order to support their pet’s changing needs, catch and treat issues early, and prevent associated problems with senior pet diseases.
