I've got an older cat, he's 18 now with health issues.
One thing I've noticed lately is that he's definitely been getting hard of hearing. He doesn't respond to my voice or other sounds the way he used to. I'm assuming this is a normal part of growing older.
I've been trying to compensate when getting his attention by flashing lights or stomping on the floor to generate vibrations. Often this doesn't work, either. I'm guessing perhaps is eyesight is also not what it used to be. Although the vibration thing kind of confuses me. Is is possible for his sense of vibration to also be going in his old age?
