Dogs and Cats may indeed suffer from something similar to what we humans know as Alzheimers. It’s called CDS or Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome. Many diseases and health issues with our pets that have never been recognized before, are surfacing because our pets are living longer now then in past generations. In years past, many pets were kept outside facing the perils most inside pets do not face.
