Virginia Domestic Shorthairs with outdoor access face tick-borne illness, parasites, and territorial injury — plus the indoor senior-cat trio of CKD, hyperthyroidism, and dental disease. Key environmental triggers: Outdoor cats face tick exposure (Lyme co-exposure with dogs); Coyote and predator risk in suburban VA; Seasonal hairball spikes (April-May, October-November).

Suspected urinary blockage (male cats — emergency), breathing difficulty, suspected toxin exposure (lily, antifreeze), or anything needing in-clinic diagnostics (x-rays, dental work, surgery) needs in-person care.
