Cats

Gemma Kilby, veterinary surgeon here at Calder Vets, gives her advice.

Ensuring good cat behaviour will require some effort from the owner, so we have prepared some facts to help you get started and to understand your pet cat's behaviour better.

The problem is, cats – like all animals that have teeth – are susceptible to gum disease and other dental problems, and they won’t exactly let you know if they’re suffering.

Why worm your cat?  Make regular worming part of your pet care routine from day one.

Flea treatment for cats is an ongoing process. Unfortunately, there is no quick fix. The main problem with fleas is that they can live without a host for months.
