Hello! I'm glad you're reaching out with your questions. In the UK, when we talk about a senior blood test for cats, it generally includes a Complete Blood Count (CBC). This test is vital as it provides a comprehensive evaluation of your cat's health by measuring various blood components like red and white blood cells, as well as platelets. Additionally, senior blood panels often incorporate a biochemistry profile. This part of the test is essential for assessing the function of vital organs, such as the liver and kidneys, which is particularly important for older cats.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to ask. Thank you! 😊
