For Every Cat We See

For cats to stay healthy and avoid serious conditions later on in life, it’s important that they see their veterinarian at least once a year. Cats benefit greatly from yearly exams, which can help detect underlying issues that would otherwise go unnoticed. For senior cats (7 years and older), we recommend exams twice yearly. For kittens, quarterly exams are recommended based on vaccination protocols. At Town & Country Animal Hospital in Fairfax, annual exam care is the keystone of your cat’s lifelong health program. It encompasses a large array of different veterinary services that contribute to your pet’s overall care. We love seeing your cat walk through our doors, happy and healthy, and we want to preserve their good health for as long as possible. Call us today at (703) 273-2110.

Cat Wellness Exams

Cats receive thorough attention during their annual or bi- annual exam visits, which begin with a physical exam. Your veterinarian will examine their:

  • Eyes
  • Ears
  • Heart rate
  • Nose
  • Coat
  • Skin
  • Paws
  • Limbs
  • Joints
  • Weight
  • Temperature
  • Mouth/teeth/gums

Your veterinarian will discuss any abnormalities or other notable characteristics with you once they’ve completed this exam.


If your cat is in good shape, they can have their vaccinations. We recommend bringing in a fresh stool sample so that we can check for intestinal parasites and administer treatment if necessary. Come to this appointment prepared with any questions or concerns you might have, so your veterinarian can address them promptly. Felines are prone to conditions such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism, and kidney disease, so we’ll check for signs of these problems as well.

Kitten Care

Newly adopted kittens need to be seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible so we can begin their healthcare regimen and catch any illnesses or diseases in their earliest stages. Bring a fresh stool sample to your appointment, as most kittens are born with some form of intestinal parasites (roundworms are very common). If your kitten is old enough (6-8 weeks), we can administer their first in a series of 4 distemper boosters. During this visit, we’ll go over litter box training, dietary recommendations, and much more.

Senior Cat Care

Comprehensive senior care protocols and procedures help you to help your cat age gracefully, healthily, and happily. Our veterinarians recommend twice-yearly exams for senior cats. These exams may include additional lab work and other services as necessary.
