Aging Horses and Cattle: As horses and cattle age, they become more susceptible to certain health issues. For horses, arthritis is a common concern, often leading to stiffness and reduced mobility.
Managing arthritis in senior horses involves providing joint supplements, anti-inflammatory medications, and ensuring they have regular, gentle exercise to keep their joints limber.
For both horses and cattle, dental problems can arise with age. Missing or worn teeth can make it difficult for them to chew, leading to weight loss. Regular dental check-ups and adjusting their diet to include softer, more digestible feeds can help prevent malnutrition.
In aging cattle, respiratory issues such as pneumonia can become more frequent. Ensuring their living area is well-ventilated, free from dust, and kept clean can help reduce the risk of respiratory infections. Regular hoof care is also crucial for older cattle to prevent mobility issues and infections.
Whether it’s horses or cattle, maintaining a consistent health check-up routine with your veterinarian can help identify and manage these common health problems early for Aging Horses and Cattle.
