You forget where you put your coffee cup. You greet a long-time client in the exam room, but suddenly can’t remember her name. You rush to get something from the pharmacy, but can’t recall it once you’re there. Many of us have had these “senior moments” but do dogs have them too? The answer is “yes”. The cause is often a condition called Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS). It’s not just old age, but a progressive neurological condition that causes changes in a pet’s behavior. If the family’s faithful companion starts to develop signs of confusion or disorientation, it could be a signal that CDS is the culprit.
At Virbac, we asked ourselves if there was a way to help older pets stay young in mind. It’s how we developed NOVIFIT® (NoviSAMe®) Tablets to help reduce the signs of CDS so older pets can continue to enjoy life to the fullest. With fewer “senior moments,” every moment of life is little more special.
