As cats age, they may be old, weak, and slow. They tend to be less active and playful, they may sleep more, gain or lose weight, and have trouble going to their favorite places. Also, they may experience a decline in cognitive functioning and have unique needs. Despite their age, they are still cute and sweet babies who love us so much. And like a fine wine, they only get better with age and still make wonderful companions. Not only do they bring joy to our lives, but they also provide us with unconditional love and great friendship.
After all, senior cats show the world that age is just a number. That’s the reason why we are here to show you 20 photos of elderly cats who still have so much love to give us. Take a look at these wonderful cats who have lived their lives to the fullest and are now enjoying their well-deserved ‘retirement’. We are sure that these photos will make your day brighter and warmer!
