Hi,
I have a 16 year old cat, who is starting to walk a little funny and has problems jumping up and down. I have placed things around the house to help her get up and down for her favorite places.
I just started to look on line for some sorta supplement for her to take for this and am coming up with varied answers. Some say to try the glucosamene, MSN, Vitamin C, Fish oil route, others say there is no studies backing up that any of that works or makes a difference.
does anyone have any good internet sources on where I can find reliable information on what I may be able to get her to help her a bit?
thanks,

Re: Cat Joint Problems
Mon, April 28, 2008 - 8:48 AMI don't have any links but my old cat used to have arthritis & the vet prescribed Cosequin (glucosamine) and he also used to get a shot maybe once a month or so. I can't remember what it was now, but they seemed to help him. I take glucosamine myself & can attest that it really does work.
