The Importance of Good Cat Health

Copyright (c) 2009-2023

Anyone that has ever owned a cat for any extended period of time realizes the importance of being actively involved in promoting good feline health. Even newcomers learn quickly that there is a great deal of information to learn when it comes to taking care of a cat. There are a number of ways in which you can be prepared to take good care of your cat to try to avoid any problems down the road.

The first priority to ensure optimal cat health is to find a reputable feline veterinarian. A solid vet should specialize in cat care and understand fully the ranges of diseases and ailments cats are susceptible to having. Ask for recommendations from other cat owners and schedule consultations interviews with several doctors before deciding on one.

A good feline doctor will listen carefully to any and all concerns regarding your cat and take the time to get to know your pet. They will consider your input and guide you in the right direction when it comes to caring for your cat. You should be able to call your vet anytime that you suspect something might be wrong with your cat and if it seems serious, you should be seen as soon as possible.

If you don't feel your vet is giving you and your cat the time and attention you deserve, then find a new one. After all, for most people, cats are a member of the family; it's important that they be well-taken care of by the outside entities you entrust with their health.

Next, it's important to do some research on cat health and some of the potential ailments and parasites you may have to contend with at some point. Common feline parasites include roundworms, mites and of course, fleas and ticks. Flea treatment is a huge issue for cats, so it's important to stay current on whatever flea prevention methods you choose.

More exotic breeds need to be cared for differently than the average house cat. Moreover, like other animal types, each cat comes with its own set of genetic issues. This is why it is so important to do thorough research on the type of cat you have as well as present a variety of questions for the breeder or person that provided the cat to you. Understanding the cat's past, as well as the medical history of its parents, is the best way to plan for potential health problems for your furry companion.

Maintaining good cat health is a commitment. Cats can live for close to 20 years, as long as they are taken care of properly. You must have a plan in place for how to care for your cat --- including designating another person to participate in the health care of your cat, in the event that something happens to you.
