Senior Pets - Show and Tell

Veterinary Medicine site news
There is a new feature on my site that I am very excited about. - viewers can now add their own photos in addition to regular tips and stories.

Like the Readers Respond stories, the photo submissions are moderated (must be approved by me) for content.

Senior Pets Have a Lot to Give
I have a special soft spot for senior pets. While they often take lots of time and extra care to accommodate for the changes seen in old age, they still give their all to their human family members.

Let's get started
Let's celebrate our senior pets. See what others have written about their special senior pets. Then, please share your stories and photos of the senior dog, cat or other pet in your life.

• Signs seen with age: Normal age-related changes for dogs and cats.
• Time to visit the vet: Know when it is time to take your senior dog or cat in for an exam.

As always, if your pet is in pain, lethargic or simply not "normal," please consult your vet. This is especially important for senior pets - they may hide illness better and they do not often have the health "reserves" they did as a younger animal.
