FELINE ARTHRITIS - an overview
Although arthritis is uncommon in cats, it does occur. Joints and ligaments can deteriorate with age, but arthritis in cats is usually the result of an injury.
Simply put, arthritis is joint inflammation. It is a painful, progressive condition that destroys the cartilage and connective tissues that provide a cushion between bone and joints.
 Symptoms include:
- Stiffness
- Limping
- Difficulty sitting or standing
- Decreased activity
- Sleeping more
- Reluctance to do normal activities like run or climb stairs
- Behavioral changes like withdrawal or aggression
