Cat cognition, the way cats receive, process, and elect to respond to sensory information, is a vital but relatively under-studied aspect of feline health. Similarly, despite the fact that nutrition plays a vital role in supporting brain development and function in animals, the role of nutrition in supporting cognition in cats specifically is in its early stages. This presentation will provide an overview of what is known about cognitive function in cats, discuss the relationship between cognition and nutrition particularly in the context of cognitive decline, and give insight into the role clinicians play in supporting senior cats that may be experiencing signs of cognitive dysfunction.
