The cartilage of a healthy joint is a “shock absorber”, providing a cushion between the bones forming the joint. When the joint cartilage is damaged, bone-on-bone contact occurs and results in the formation of bone spurs, joint pain and inflammation.

Degenerative changes to a joint are commonly seen in animals that are advancing in age, overweight or have had a previous injury to the joint.

The following signs help to detect joint disease:

• Inability to jump on or off objects

• Decreased grooming activity

• Changes in behaviour, withdrawal

• Changes to litter box behaviour

• Weight loss, reduced appetite

Cats are good at hiding signs of pain,
therefore watch for subtle changes.

A multi-faceted management of joint conditions help minimize pain and slow down degenerative changes of joints.
