Drug Treatment & Special Diet
The veterinarian usually prescribes medication for the pet that slows down mental deterioration and possibly supplements that improve its general condition and strengthen the immune system. In addition, various dietary supplements can be recommended by him. A healthy, age-appropriate diet , perhaps with special foods, is a good idea.
If your old cat suffers from a loss of appetite, you can spoil your aging cat and try to make it tastier with his favorite food, tuna without oil or chicken. Also, make sure that her little friend enough drinks enough water.
You Can Do This at Home for Your Demented Cat
Lots of love, peace, understanding, warmth, and care are among the most important things you can do for your beloved cat at home. A regular daily routine and not too much hustle and bustle in the household will make your pet feel more comfortable. Try not to scold your cat, even if it has a mishap with the litter box or disturbs you at night with its loud meowing. Setting up additional litter boxes that make it easier to get in with a lower edge are among the measures that make everyday life easier for your pet.
Employment of the Old Cat
Most demented cats don’t want to go outside anymore – considering their disorientation, which is sometimes stronger, sometimes weaker, it makes sense to leave the cat inside, especially when the disease is advanced. Providing her with lots of nice, cozy, and warm places that she can easily reach and leaving her alone when she is resting and sleeping will serve her needs well in old age.
Also, since your pet may not be able to play as wildly anymore, you can try to please him with clicker training and quiet activity toys like a playboard.
