Optimize Your Pet’s Golden Years with Our Senior Pet Care Services
At Kindness Animal Hospital, we understand that your senior furry companion holds a special place in your heart. We design our senior pet care services to cater to the unique needs of aging pets, focusing on their health, comfort, and overall well-being to help them age gracefully while maintaining optimal quality of life.
Regular check-ups are essential to staying on top of your aging pet’s needs. We recommend frequent examinations and bloodwork to monitor your senior pet’s health closely. These routine assessments help us detect any underlying issues early, allowing for timely intervention and a higher chance of successful treatment.
about our clinic –
Big Island pet care center
Dr. Grune, a visionary in the field of veterinary medicine, founded our clinic in 1990. Opening his own practice was the realization of his lifelong dream—to deliver the highest level of care to animals in need.
Through his clinic, Dr. Grune has surpassed his expectations and provided comprehensive and compassionate care for dogs and cats throughout Hawaii. We prioritize client education and have created a comfortable space where pets and parents feel at ease.
Our lovely clinic is located within a retrofitted house. It exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open-air lanai serves as our waiting room, and the surrounding landscaped grounds provide a serene environment to promote relaxation for your pet.
Our hands-on approach ensures that your furry friends receive personalized attention and care. We genuinely strive for the best for your pet and aim to build lasting relationships with both pets and their devoted owners. Our dedicated veterinarians and staff are here to meet all your pet healthcare needs.
Tailored Care for Senior Pets
Dietary Requirements for Senior Pets
We are here to help you navigate your pet’s changing nutritional needs to ensure your senior companion receives the appropriate nutrition to stay youthful and active.
Arthritis Management
Our senior pet care services include arthritis management strategies to alleviate discomfort and improve your pet’s joint function.
Specialized Care
We offer senior pets IV fluid support, pre-anesthesia bloodwork, or a full comprehensive blood panel when needed. When any senior pet undergoes anesthesia for a procedure at Kindness Animal Hospital, the initial sedative used is designed for geriatric animals and actually speeds up their heart rate instead of slowing it down, so it is safer under anesthesia.
