My cat Sam is probably near 8 or 9 years old. I have had him almost 3 years, and was told that he was 5 when I adopted him, but I am aware that he may have been older. I think that the owners may have lied to make him younger, and make him more adoptable.
I am thinking of having the vet do a blood panel for him, we've never had one done, and I thought this would be useful if only to establish base levels.
Does this make any sense? I am thinking about future issues like kidney and liver function, if we have base levels now, we have something to compare with if he has issues as he reached "senior" status.
