🧬 Health Issues Don’t Stop at the Door

Indoor cats are safer — yes. But they’re still at risk for:

• Dental disease (affects 70%+ of cats over age 3)
• Obesity from lack of exercise
• Kidney and thyroid disorders in older cats
• Diabetes, arthritis, and cancer — just like humans
• Fleas, mites, and parasites that hitch a ride indoors

Just because they’re inside doesn’t mean they’re immune.

💉 Yes, Indoor Cats Still Need Vaccines

• Core vaccines: FVRCP and Rabies — required even by law
• Optional: FeLV (Feline Leukemia) for multi-cat homes or rescues

Diseases can come in through windows, visitors, or a single outdoor escape. One vet visit a year keeps them protected.

🧪 Early Detection = Longer Life

Most cats hide illness until it’s advanced. Annual exams help us catch:

• Weight loss or gain trends
• Changes in kidney, liver, and thyroid function
• High blood pressure or heart murmurs

One simple blood test could add years to your cat’s life.

🐾 Behavioral Changes = Health Clues

Is your cat hiding more? Not using the litter box? Not eating like before? These are red flags. We help you decode behavior changes early — before it’s a crisis.

🪥 Dental Care = Pain Prevention

Cats rarely show dental pain until it’s severe. We screen teeth and gums during every exam — because prevention is far better than tooth extraction later.
