I’ll be discussing a set of behavior changes occurring in senior cats: feline cognitive dysfunction, a disorder similar to dementia in humans.

June is Adopt A Cat Month, and here at the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center, we’re celebrating our feline friends with an entire month of blogposts devoted just to cats. Last week, we explored Pandora Syndrome. This week, we’re turning our attention to a common and concerning issue in cats: red eyes. Red eyes can result from any number of medical issues, which I will detail below.
