Holistic Support for Feline and Canine Cognitive Dysfunction
Witnessing a confused cat grapple with behavioral and cognitive changes can be one of the challenges of caring for a senior kitty. You may notice differences in their behavior, physicality, mobility, appearance, and temperament as they approach their golden years. Many of these changes start happening as early as 11 years of age and are entirely normal. Others may be indicative of various health concerns and debilitation of your feline companion’s cognitive abilities. Understanding and addressing these transformations are integral to providing supportive care for your aging cat.
Anticipating and understanding the behavioral changes in aging cats is crucial for providing comprehensive care. Some typical changes you may observe include:
Some of these behavior changes listed above can indicate underlying health concerns, which is why it is vital to keep up with your regular checkups with your local vet. Additionally, some changes might point to cognitive decline or dysfunctions, including:
Mental stimulation, adequate nutrition, and a supportive environment can go a long way in supporting your senior and confused cat.
When evaluating cognitive decline, it’s crucial to rule out other health concerns through regular checkups, including a yearly physical, geriatric blood panel, and urinalysis. These diagnostic measures can provide insight into the internal workings of various bodily systems and ensure their regular functioning. If everything returns to normal, your vet will move on to cognitive analysis and test for declines.
Once you discover that your cherished pet is grappling with cognitive dysfunction, there are various proactive steps that pet parents can take to support them on this new journey. Here are some key strategies:
Providing a stable living space is crucial. Keep their environment clean, and organized, and avoid sudden changes to routines or surroundings. This helps minimize confusion and anxiety.
Consistency in daily activities, from waking up and walking to feeding and bathroom breaks, can be immensely beneficial in providing a sense of stability for your pet.
Make sure your pet has easy access to food, water, and their favorite spots around the house. A well-balanced diet, rich in vitamin E, EPA, DHA, and antioxidants, can also contribute to maintaining a healthy nervous system. Adding NHV Multi Essentials and NHV PetOmega 3 to their regimen can also help ensure they receive the vital nutrients necessary for their optimal health.
Recognize the potential for increased accidents and be a supportive, safe space for your pet. Providing extra patience, attention, and love is crucial during this time. NHV Matricalm can also help! This natural herbal product was designed to help reduce excitability in your pet, reduce aggressive behavior, and provide anxiety and stress relief for your cat.
Engage your pet in mental stimulation activities to keep their mind active and enhance cognitive function. Puzzle toys, interactive games, and training exercises are excellent tools for this purpose.
Incorporate routine physical exercise suitable for your pet’s capabilities. Additionally, ensure proper socialization, which contributes to overall brain health.
Proactive care emerges as a valuable tool, whether applied before or after a diagnosis. By investing time and effort into mental stimulation activities and maintaining a consistent and supportive environment, you can enhance the well-being and cognitive function of your beloved pet during this challenging phase of their life.
Adequate nutrition is also essential for senior pets, especially ensuring they receive a balanced diet supporting brain health. Additionally, addressing mental well-being and stress management is crucial, as these factors can be interconnected with early cognitive decline and various other health issues. These are some natural supplements that can help with nutritional, brain, and stress support:
NHV Natures Immuno, our mushroom blend, is rich in antioxidants, is a beneficial support for memory loss, has been used to treat various degenerative brain diseases, and can aid in healthy cell growth.
NHV Old Timer offers restorative action with its rich source of antioxidants, supports healthy muscles and endurance, and can aid in preventing chronic injury.
NHV Yucca is highly nutritious and can help support many body processes, including nerve function. Its excellent anti-inflammatory properties can alleviate inflammation in the brain and nervous system.
In conclusion, the journey of caring for a confused cat entering its golden years, particularly one grappling with cognitive changes, requires a holistic and proactive approach. We are here to help you stay attuned to your senior kittie’s needs and address them with compassion and informed choices. Feel free to message us by clicking the link below!

A cat is technically considered a senior at 7-9 years old. While a 13 year old cat is technically a senior, cats have been known to live past 20 years. Age is not a disease! Maintain your kitty's optimal health and she can live for many more happy years.
Maintaining optimal health through kidney support, nutritional support, and a healthy balanced diet can help keep your cat healthy into their senior years. We recommend at least annual vet visits for cats over 9 years old.
Some changes that might be seen with aging include weight gain, lowered energy, stiff joints, foggy eyes (nuclear sclerosis) and weakened hearing. Antioxidant support can help to slow the progression of these aging changes.
It's never too early to start preventive supplements! If you have a breed which may be prone to a specific condition, supplementation can be started at any time. It's better to not wait for problems to be severe before supporting them.
