Cat Care Center of Baton Rouge offers preventative health care as well as advanced diagnostic and surgical services. Our commitment to quality service and compassionate feline veterinary care motivates us to continuously evolve.
We Support Every Stage of Your Cat's Life
As your feline friend grows, they will move through six distinct stages of life:
- Kitten: 0 - 6 months
- Junior: 7 months - 2 years
- Prime: 3 - 6 years
- Mature: 7 - 10 years
- Senior: 11 - 14 years
- Geriatric: 15+ years
Naturally, as a cat grows and progresses through life, it will undergo physiological changes and face a variety of life events that will require care and attention. From kitten care to geriatric cat medicine, consistent preventive care can make all the difference in the quality of life of your cat. Ultimately your cat's health will impact your relationship with them.
Cats are the masters of disguise and therefore very good at hiding illness. In fact, most cats will simply become less active and less interactive when very ill. Any signs of illness that a cat may show will be very subtle. Any change in their behavior should warrant a consideration that they may be ill. Many clients will return from work to find that their cat simply does not greet them at the door or eat their meals as usual. This may be an indication that your cat is ill. Because the signs of cat illness are so subtle, if you should notice any changes in behavior please call our office.
