Sur 100 chats seniors jugés en bonne santé par leur propriétaire, combien pensez-vous sont en réalité malades… ?
C'est exactement la question que s'est posée le Dr Sylvie Daminet avant de commencer son étude "Apparently Healthy for the Owner". Alors, si l'on cherche, trouve-t-on des surprises ?
Pour rappel, en 2021, l'AAFP a mis en avant l'importance des bilans de santé pour les chats seniors :
· Les chats âgés de 10 à 15 ans doivent consulter un vétérinaire tous les 6 mois.
· Les chats de plus de 15 ans devraient consulter tous les 4 mois.
Re-découvrez l'importance de ces bilans de santé à travers les conclusions de l'étude "Apparently Healthy for the Owner" du Dr Daminet, dans le premier épisode de notre série "L'avis du spécialiste - Quoi de neuf au niveau du rein ?".
