Things to keep an eye on
Dental disease
moderateLike many domestic cats, this breed can accumulate tartar and plaque, which may lead to gum inflammation if not managed. Routine oral care is an important part of their overall health.
Introduce regular tooth brushing or dental-friendly treats to your cat's routine.
Joint issues
moderateDue to their large size and significant bone structure, these cats may experience increased stress on their joints as they age. Monitoring for changes in mobility or activity levels is recommended.
Maintain a healthy weight to reduce unnecessary pressure on the joints.
Obesity
moderateLarge breeds can be prone to weight gain if their caloric intake exceeds their activity levels. Keeping a close eye on body condition helps prevent related health complications.
Measure daily food portions accurately and encourage regular play sessions.
