I have a senior cat at home, and I'm worried about her health. What are some common health issues in older cats?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Senior cats often experience kidney disease, arthritis, and dental problems. Regular check-ups with your vet can help catch these issues early.<|im_end|>

That's helpful, thank you. What are some ways to make my home more comfortable for my senior cat?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You can make your home more comfortable for your senior cat by providing ramps or stairs for easy access, soft bedding, and a warm place to rest. Also, make sure food and water are easily accessible.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'll make those changes. Are there any specific foods that are good for senior cats?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, look for senior cat food that's high in protein, low in sodium, and has joint supplements. Consult with your vet for recommendations on the best food for your cat's specific needs.<|im_end|>
