In this issue of Veterinary Clinics: Small Animal Practice, guest editor Dr. Mary Gardner brings her considerable expertise to the topic of Geriatrics. As the pet population ages—with research showing that 43% of patients are now considered senior—it is alarming that nearly 50% never see their vet before the end. In this issue, top experts cover key issues such as managing chronic pain, mobility challenges, sensory decline, and co-morbidities while also addressing the importance of client education and support for stressed caregivers. Drawing on insights from our experiences and research, this issue offers real-world strategies to ensure that every geriatric case is met with effective, compassionate care for both the pet and their families.
