Immune Aging in Cats
Why older cats fight disease differently — and how to protect resilience.
Why This Matters
An aging immune system becomes less precise and more inflammatory.
The Science
Immunosenescence
Weaker response to infection.
Inflammatory drift
Greater chronic inflammation.
Cancer vulnerability
Reduced immune surveillance.
What This Means for Your Cat
Protecting immunity protects longevity.
How Longevity Medicine Responds
1. Nutritional immune support
