Elderly Cats 'Crying Out for Help' Due to Misunderstood Condition, Vet Warns - Liverpool Echo

  • Approximately six out of ten cats experiencing cognitive decline vocalize frequently during the night due to neurological changes that impact their behavior.
  • This condition, cognitive dysfunction syndrome, mirrors human dementia and often goes unrecognized as owners mistake symptoms for aging.
  • Veterinarians advise that symptoms like disorientation, altered interactions, and sleep-wake changes require veterinary assessment to rule out other conditions.
  • "Take night-time vocalisation seriously," warns Dr. Aimee Warner, as owners who comfort their cats see less distress than those who respond with frustration.
  • Meanwhile, Kitty Rescue Bury faces crisis vet bills over £17,000 for June as rising costs and increased demand strain their support for over 200 cats.
