Do you use health insurance for your cats?
If you do- which one do you use/recommend? (Or I mean pet insurance)
What are some illnesses that are common in cats that we should watch out for and what prevention methods are the best?
My current cat is 2 years old.
She's always been a butt scooter and sometimes get constipated (as in her poops get kind of pellet like), but I feed her pumpkin on occasion for that, but otherwise her stools are very healthy.
I also like to put water into her dry food (I don't know if this is necessary but she seems to not drink a lot of water otherwise) and make sure she's peeing 2-3 times a day.
I try to give her at least 30 minutes of play, probably more since other people in the house also play with her. She gets a ton of attention since there's always someone home . She gets a yearly vet check. Try to brush her frequently.
I feed her a mix of American Journey grain free chicken/turkey and Kitten chow. I'm not sure if kitten chow is really the best quality, but she just doesn't really like American Journey dry food by itself. Wet food just never meshed well with her stomach, so I don't give her that.
Is there anything I should adjust/add in to this usual care to make sure she stays healthy?
I guess this is kind of a 3-in-1 comprehensive health question, but any advice would be appreciated!
