Cats are experts at hiding pain and illness. Just because your cat doesn’t seem sick doesn’t mean she isn’t. She could have dental disease — by three years of age, most cats have signs of dental disease, which can be very painful. As your cat ages, the likelihood that she’ll develop other illnesses such as hyperthyroidism or kidney disease also increases. By getting your cat to the vet for regular blood tests and exams, you’ll catch the disease earlier, leading to a better prognosis and a longer life with your beloved kitty.
