Senior Pet Care in Corona, CA
As pets grow older, their healthcare needs change, requiring more specialized attention. Our goal is to help your pet age comfortably and maintain a good quality of life through regular check-ups, preventive care, and tailored treatments.
What Is Senior Pet Care?
Senior pet care refers to the medical attention and support provided to aging pets to manage the unique health challenges they face. As pets age, they are more susceptible to certain conditions such as arthritis, dental disease, kidney problems, and heart issues. Routine check-ups, blood work, and early detection are essential to addressing these issues before they become more serious. At Animal Hospital of Eagle Glen, we focus on monitoring your pet’s overall health and making adjustments as needed to their diet, exercise, and medical care.
Benefits of Senior Pet Care
The primary benefit of senior pet care is the ability to detect and manage health problems early. Regular wellness exams allow Dr. Farrar, our veterinarian, to catch potential issues before they progress, ensuring your pet receives appropriate treatments to maintain their comfort and well-being. For senior pets, managing pain, maintaining mobility, and preventing serious illnesses are key to keeping them happy and active in their golden years.
When Should You Consider Senior Pet Care?
Senior pet care should begin as your pet approaches the later stages of life, typically around seven years of age for dogs and cats, though this can vary depending on the breed. If you notice changes in your pet’s energy levels, appetite, or behavior, it may be time to consider scheduling a senior wellness exam. Signs such as difficulty moving, weight loss, or increased thirst can indicate underlying health concerns that require attention.
Dr. Farrar will perform a comprehensive exam, which may include blood tests, urinalysis, and diagnostic imaging to assess your pet’s health. Regular check-ups, typically every six months, are recommended to monitor their condition closely and make adjustments to their care as needed.
