Cats Don't Stay Young Forever
Like us, cats don't stay young forever -- they age. And, like us, some cats age more gracefully than others. Classic City Cat Clinic is here to make sure that your cat receives the very best care as she enters her later years.

When a cat reaches around seven years of age, she will likely start acting and feeling like a senior cat. The effects of the aging process are both physical and mental, and knowing what to expect can help you determine if the changes you are seeing in your cat are related simply to advancing age or an underlying illness.

A Focus On Preventative Medicine
Caring for an older cat should focus on preventative measures. Whenever possible, it is better to prevent a problem from occurring, rather than to wait for a problem to develop. Detecting disease in the early stages greatly improves the outcome.

Within the last few decades, advancements in veterinary medicine have caused a dramatic increase in the longevity of our pets. Today, cats are living longer and healthier lives. If there is a problem with your older cat, don't assume it's just because of old age, and that nothing can be done. With appropriate treatment, many conditions can improve!

Aging Gracefully
Classic City Cat Clinic can help your pet age more gracefully and improve her quality of life. We strongly recommend a complete physical exam at least once every six months. Routine blood work also helps us catch many diseases early, which can dramatically improve the life and health of your cat.
