National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day

Today is one day that all cat owners need to be reminded of- it’s Take Your Cat to the Vet Day.

Cats are amazing at hiding when they are in pain and/ or don’t feel good.  They can get VERY sick before it’s obvious something is wrong.  That’s why it’s important that your cat makes regular trips to the vet.  If you have a good baseline it’s much easier to tell when something is wrong.

True story- 22 years ago I took my cat Buddy in for routine shots.  We discovered he had lost 2 lbs, which is a LOT for a cat.  To be fair, he weight 22 lbs at one time, so he was a BIG cat.  Turns out he had developed severe diabetes.  Because we caught it pretty early I was able to get 4 more years good years with him.

So even if your cats are 100% inside- which they should be!- regular trips to the vet are important.  If it’s been a while, why not make the call and get that appointment scheduled today.
