Age is not a disease

Senior Pet Health from nose to tail for the dog and cat

From the veterinarian behind the popular YouTube channel @AnimalDocRea comes the ultimate senior-pet playbook.

Dr. Amber Rea has spent 15 years helping thousands of dogs and cats live their golden years with comfort and joy. Now she’s put everything she teaches in the exam room into one practical, myth-busting guide that covers both species from nose to tail.

Inside you’ll discover:

• How to spot pain and illness early — even when your pet is “acting normal”
• Cat-specific red flags most owners (and vets) miss
• Why “meat is magic” is a lie — and the real numbers for senior nutrition
• Hyperthyroidism, CKD, arthritis, cognitive decline, diabetes, house-soiling, and more — explained simply and honestly
• Practical tools: Feline Grimace Scale, IRIS staging, PSS™ scoring, 48-hour rules, and when it’s truly time to say goodbye
• Hyperlinked resources, QR codes, and direct links to Dr. Rea’s free guides and videos

Whether you have a 10-year-old Lab or a 17-year-old tabby (or both), this book gives you the confidence to give them the best care possible — without the guilt, confusion, or Google spiral.

Because age is not a disease — it’s a stage of life that deserves comfort, dignity, and a whole lot of love.

Perfect for new senior-pet parents and seasoned ones who want to do even better.
