5 Cat Health Tips Most Owners Don’t Know
Most cat owners want their cats to live longer, healthier lives, but some of the best cat wellness tips are easy to miss. In this video, Dr. Andrew Jones shares five lesser-known cat health tips covering food, hydration, enrichment, disease prevention, dental care, and simple at-home monitoring.
You’ll learn why cats do best with high-protein, low-carbohydrate foods, why reading ingredient labels matters, and how a wide, shallow food bowl can make mealtime more comfortable. Dr. Jones also explains why moisture is so important for cats, how canned food can support hydration, and why placing water away from food and the litter box may encourage drinking.
He also covers mental enrichment for indoor cats, including hunting-style feeding, outdoor time on a harness, climbing spaces, and unscented litter. For long-term health, he discusses dental care, kidney support, phosphorus in the diet, and reviewing vaccines and medications with your veterinarian based on your cat’s individual needs.
Finally, Dr. Jones encourages cat parents to check their cat regularly for changes in weight, appetite, urination, coat, mouth, eyes, and behavior. Small changes can be early clues that something is wrong, and regular veterinary exams still matter. Simple habits can improve everyday feline health and wellness.
