Feline Disease Profile - Osteoarthritis

Senior cats that exhibit the symptoms of aching joints may be afflicted with Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease. Excess weight may be a contributing factor, and weight control (including exercise) is an important part of any treatment program for Osteoarthritis.

Fortunately, new developments in veterinary medicine have provided products that can help relieve the pain, and even to repair existing damage to the cartilage which normally protects joints from damage due to wear.
