NorthWest Animal Hospital veterinarians provide comprehensive geriatric care for senior cats and dogs to help them feel healthy and comfortable in their old age.
While your pet may seem young and spry, you may be surprised to learn that they are already a senior. In fact, cats and small to medium-sized dogs are typically considered seniors around the age of 7.
Our vets will thoroughly examine your senior pet, ask about their home life in detail and perform any tests that may be required to receive additional insight into his or her general physical health and condition.
Due to improved dietary options and better veterinary care, companion cats and dogs are living far longer today than they have in the past.
Preventive care is essential to helping your senior pet live a health, happy and fulfilled life. It also gives our veterinarians the opportunity to detect diseases early.
Dogs and cats can develop oral tumors and growths, which can be cancerous. Regular dental check-ups are essential for early detection. If your pet has persistent mouth sores, difficulty eating, or other oral abnormalities, consult your veterinarian promptly.

Just like humans, pets can experience tooth decay and fractures. This can be caused by poor dental care or accidents. Affected teeth may need to be extracted or treated, so regular dental check-ups are crucial to identify and address these issues early.
