Does a cold, wet nose really mean a cat is healthy?
By: Dr. Jon Rappaport

Our question this week was:

Dr. Jon - Does a cold, wet nose really mean a cat is healthy?

Answer

Hi – thanks for your email and question. You asked, does a cold wet nose mean your cat is healthy? The answer is NO! A cold wet nose does not determine health.

A cat with a good appetite maintaining a good body weight and is playful is a sign of good health.
