Understanding Pet Geriatric Care

As pets age, their healthcare needs change. Pet geriatric care focuses on the health and well-being of older pets. As animals age, they are more prone to developing health conditions, like arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive disorders.

Regular veterinary check-ups have become increasingly important for the early detection and management of these conditions.

Geriatric care includes routine examinations, diagnostic testing, and tailored treatment plans designed to meet the specific needs of senior pets.

Key Benefits of Pet Geriatric Care

Engaging in regular pet geriatric care at Pine Castle Animal Care Center yields several benefits for your pet:
