Regular vet visits for your cat are one of the most important things you can do to keep them healthy and happy. The norm is that an annual check-up would suffice for an adult cat in most cases. The vet will also check your cat’s weight, teeth, ears, and general health during the visit. Vets can diagnose the problem before it gets worse. Usually, vaccinations, flea treatments, and other preventive measures are included in the visits, and this is a great way for your cat to be safe from the diseases they encounter most.
Young and old cats will require more frequent visits to the vet. The schedule for a kitten's visits to the vet can be every couple of weeks until they are registered and strong enough. In the case of senior cats, a period of six months between health checks is the best. Cat diseases such as kidney disease and arthritis may become more prominent as the cat ages, but help will be easier to get if the problem is diagnosed early. Through regular check-ups, your cat’s problems will be detected on time and will return to a happier and healthier state of life.
In case your cat displays any characteristic of being sick (e.g. it changes its appetite, behavior, or bathroom habits) do not wait until the next scheduled visit to notify the vet. Take them to the vet without delay. Early diagnosis is always safer. Your vet will always be available for questions and advice if you have a good relationship. Your cat depends on you to provide for it, and regular vet visits are a big part of that.
