Senior Cat Life

Help Your Senior Cat Feel More Comfortable, Every Day

Aging brings questions: Is your cat simply slowing down, or could a change in appetite, mobility, grooming, or behavior deserve attention? Senior Cat Life helps you notice what matters, make practical changes at home, and know when to contact your veterinarian—without treating every difference as an emergency or dismissing it as “just old age.”

Emily Hartwell offers an empathetic, easy-to-use guide to understanding your cat’s changing needs. Learn how to track weight, eating, drinking, litter habits, sleep, and activity; create a comfortable home with accessible essentials and safer places to rest; and build gentle routines for feeding, play, grooming, and prescribed medication. The book also explains common health concerns in older cats, including arthritis, kidney disease, and thyroid problems, while keeping veterinary care at the center of diagnosis and treatment decisions.

Practical tools help you turn concern into clear next steps:

You’ll also find thoughtful guidance for supporting quality of life, caring for a cat with chronic illness, and facing end-of-life conversations with compassion. Give your senior cat attentive, comfortable care—and feel more prepared to make each day a good one.
