High blood pressure is a threat in older cats that can easily go unchecked until it causes serious problems such as strokes and blindness. In a clinic setting blood pressure can be raised due to ‘white coat syndrome’.
We can come to your home and measure blood pressure, keeping stress levels as low as possible, and therefore distinguish true high blood pressure more accurately.
If high blood pressure is diagnosed, this is usually easily managed with medication and Martha and Mhairi can advise you and provide you with any treatments required.
