We're particular about your pet's health

Feline Wellness Care

Wellness care is an essential part of keeping your cat healthy. Wellness care includes physical exams, customized vaccination schedules reflecting your pet’s breed, lifestyle, and individual needs, proper food/nutrition evaluation and disease screenings. At Shiloh Veterinary Hospital, our feline wellness care is designed to provide comprehensive long-term, life-stage veterinary care for your cat, from kitten-hood through his or her senior years. From vaccines and flea-tick prevention, to general health care, diagnostics and surgery when needed, we provide all of the health care your cat may need. Regardless of your cat’s age or existing medical conditions, we can provide advanced veterinary care to give you peace of mind that your cat will enjoy a long and healthy life!

As advocates of preventative health care, we recommend that we see your cat at least annually for a comprehensive wellness exam.Many cats are very good about hiding symptoms that something is wrong or painful. Early detection can improve the health of your feline and help keep medical costs down as well. Cats age much faster than humans do, so it is even more important to bring your cat in for routine check-ups. Keep in mind that the risks of cancer, heart diseases, diabetes, hormone disorders, arthritis, and kidney and liver issues can all increase as your feline gets older.

At your cat’s annual exam, we will check your pet from top to bottom. In addition, we will also make sure that your pet recieves the appropriate vaccinations and preventions. We will access any questions about weight and nutritonal needs of your cat. A diagnostic workup may be recommened for your pet. Some of the diagnostic testing we offer is bloodwork, internal parasite testing, thyroid/kidney bloodwork panels, urinalysis testing, feline leukemia and feline immundodeficiency virus blood testing, yearly deworming, and microchipping if needed.

Additional wellness cat care includes:

  • Professional dental cleanings when needed
  • Specialized care for your senior cat, including bi-annual wellness exams, to detect changing health conditions early
  • Diagnostic testing should we need additional information to diagnose your cat’s illness
  • General medicine services and a collaborative approach to diagnosing and managing chronic diseases such as diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, kidney and liver disorders
  • Dermatology care for conditions such as allergies and chronic ear infections
  • Prescription foods for medical conditions
  • Health certificates, both domestic and international

Our Vaccine Philosophy

Vaccines are important in preventing serious disease in cats. Our philosophy is to design a personalized vaccine protocol for each dog, maximizing protection against the diseases your cat is likely to be exposed to. Our current vaccine recommendations are based on up-to-date research and the incidence of disease in our area.
