Резюме	Body condition scoring is a systematic clinical assessment method for evaluating a dog's or cat's body fat and muscle mass relative to ideal standards. Developed and standardized by Purina and veterinary nutrition experts in the 1990s-2000s, it provides objective evaluation of nutritional status, guides dietary management, and identifies obesity and malnutrition as contributors to disease. Body condition scoring is fundamental to preventive medicine and geriatric care in small animal practice.	Clinical scoring systems provide standardized methods for objectively assessing animal health status, pain, disease severity, and treatment outcomes. Developed progressively by veterinary organizations and research groups since the early 2000s, these systems enable consistent documentation, comparison of cases, and evidence-based clinical decision-making across species and practice settings.
