Feeding an elderly Siamese cat needs care. First, control diet because slower metabolism leads to obesity, and overfeeding causes obesity-related health issues, while ensuring balanced nutrition with enough protein, vitamins and minerals. Second, elderly cats easily develop kidney problems from thirst, so provide plenty of clean drinking water and keep it fresh to promote intake.
Finally, take the cat for regular veterinary checkups so problems are found and treated early.
