CAT PREVENTATIVE HEALTHCARE

Preventative Health Care for Kittens

Your cat's health depends on you and your veterinarian.  If you own a kitten or an adult cat, like humans, they are at risk for different infectious diseases throughout their lives.  Preventative vaccination programs will help maintain your cat's health against these diseases.  Proper nuturition and regular exercise combined with annual visits to the veterinarian will help maintain the good health of your pet.

In a young cat, a series of vaccinations is given early in life to develop its immune system against disease.  Your kitten's health and well-being depend on more than juist vaccines.  Our veterinarians will discuss with you behavior issues and questions you might have.

As your cat grows the annual physical exam is the most important way to ensure continued good health it gives the veterinarian an opportunity to detect and prevent potential health problems as early as possible.  The evaluation of your cat's health may include laboratory testing and other diagnostic workups. Preventative health care measures such as vaccinations, parasite control, proper nutruition, and dental care will be discussed.
