Taking the cat to the vet can be just as hard on their owners as it is on the patient. To smooth things along, try to get the cat used to the carrier way before any vet trip. Bringing favorite treats and talking calmly can help soothe a nervous traveler, too.

Cats get minor colds and illnesses just like their owners. But if your cat has a runny nose and symptoms including crusty eyes and coughing or sneezing, closely monitor your pet.

Do you have a new puppy? Hopefully, you have chosen a completely healthy animal and will enjoy a lifetime of fun.
