Cats are famously good at hiding discomfort as they age. Here are some small changes that can help make life easier for your senior kitty at home.

An infographic titled "Comfort Is Care: Cat Edition".

Three tips are provided with accompanying photos:
* Rethink the Litter Box: Senior cats may struggle with high-sided litter boxes, especially if they have arthritis or paw pain. Consider switching to a low-entry litter box to make bathroom trips easier. Next to this text is a photo of a black cat stepping out of a low-entry litter box.
* Offer Scratching Options: Vertical scratching posts aren't always comfortable for senior cats. Try adding horizontal or angled scratchers so they can stretch and scratch without overworking sore joints. Next to this text is a photo of a black cat resting on a curved, horizontal cardboard scratcher.
* Make Favorite Spots Easier to Reach: If your cat loves a window perch, couch, or bed, consider adding pet stairs, ramps, or lower resting spots so they don't have to jump as much. Next to this text is a photo of a fluffy cat sitting on a tiered pet stair unit near a window.

Senior pet care helps older dogs and cats stay comfortable, active, and happy. 🐾 Senior dogs and senior cats may need more frequent wellness exams as they age. Call your vet to schedule a checkup. #SeniorPetCare #SeniorPets #PetHealth

Rest is a recovery tool. High-quality, orthopedic support isn't just a luxury; it’s essential for aging joints and active bodies alike. When we invest in their physical comfort, we’re investing in their long-term vitality.
