Just like us, our cats and dogs grow old. When they do, they have some of the same problems, including senility.
Some dogs may exhibit a number of behavioral [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/jimmy-choo.php]jimmy choo chaussures[/url] changes linked to senility. This condition is now commonly called Canine Cognitive Dysfunction, or Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome. While this syndrome is recognized in dogs, it has not been scientifically established in cats.
There are four main areas where CCD symptoms appear. They are disorientation, interaction with people, activity level [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/abercrombiepascher/‎]abercrombie soldes[/url] and sleep, and housetraining.
Disorientation can be seen as an animal that wanders aimlessly, gets stuck in corners, stands at the wrong side [url=http://www.fayatindia.com/giuseppe-zanotti.html]giuseppe zanotti pas cher[/url] of a door or [url=http://www.shewyne.com/moncleroutlet.html]moncler sito ufficiale[/url] appears not to recognize people [url=http://www.shewyne.com/moncleroutlet.html]moncler outlet[/url] or familiar commands and words.
Interaction with people may change. You may notice more (or less) attention seeking, a reluctance to [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] be petted or touched, or lack of response to names and commands.
Activity level and sleep changes show in such behaviors as sleeping more during the day and less at night, barking for no reason, forgetting meal times, and wandering aimlessly.
Housetraining changes are obvious - urinating in the house, not asking to go outside or forgetting why they are there when [url=http://www.osterblade.com]moncler outlet[/url] they [url=http://aquatwins.com/bbs/index.cgi/index.cgi]L??avion]nike air jordan pas cher Insu[/url] do go out. Incontinence is a physical problem, and should not be confused with forgetting due to senility.
Cats may show some of these same signs, though they are often more subtle. A number of other conditions can also show up in behavior changes in dogs and cats.
Chronic pain can be responsible for behavior changes such as pacing or insommnia. Hyperthyroidism in cats is often a reason for some of the odd behaviors older cats may exhibit.
Other hormonal disorders can also cause changes, especially those involving eating patterns or aggression. Medications can also cause changes in behavior, as can many other diseases and [url=http://www.lcdmo.com/hollister.php]hollister france[/url] medical conditions.
Cats are also prone to small strokes, which can [url=http://www.e-hp.info/america/bbs/america.cgi?res=116]peuterey sito ufficiale Motor[/url] cause changes such as walking into walls, or appearing disorientated.
A thorough medical exam with blood [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Hollister-b5.php]hollister[/url] work will be necessary in order to determine if your pet has a cognitive disorder due to aging.
A loss of [url=http://www.shewyne.com/peutereyoutlet.html]peuterey sito ufficiale[/url] hearing or sight can cause a similar syndrome, known as societal disassociative disorder.
You can help your pet through [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/abercrombie/]abercrombie[/url] these times by being aware of the causes and not taking it personally or punishing the animal for inappropriate behavior. You can offer extra attention and reassurance.
Try to keep a consistent schedule, and to not make a lot of physical changes in the dog or cat's environment.
The use of flower essences, aromatherapy, herbs and touch therapy can all be helpful in keeping your dog or cat free of anxiety.
