Cats develop dementia similarly to humans with Alzheimer's disease, leading to hopes of a breakthrough in research, according to scientists.
Experts at the University of Edinburgh carried out a post-mortem brain examination on 25 cats which exhibited symptoms of dementia in life, including confusion, sleep disruption and an increase in vocalisation, in a bid explore new treatments for humans.
