Golden Girl asked:


It seems with the change of weather and some of the cats ages they have developed arthritis. It has been said that aspirin is helpful but what about glucosamine? One of them has been prescribed steroids for a hip displacement and although the steroids seem to help dramatically it may be too invasive for some of the others. Your help would be appreciated.

   Glucosamine is your safest bet. It works great for Dogs too.
   We use it on our older cats and it really gives them relief.

   For arthritis never under any circumstances try to treat the affected area in the development and minimize symptoms and chondroitin which are strictly available through prescription only supplements such as adequan may not.
