Cat Articulation: Find the best veterinary products to treat joint problems

Cats can suffer from many kinds of bone and joint problems. Cats suffering from joint problems such as osteoarthritis may limp and have difficulty climbing on furniture, jumping, grooming or even accessing their litter box. If your cat is numb and has difficulty moving, discover a variety of care products designed to treat your pet.

It's important to look after our cats' joint health, especially as they age. Joints can become painful and inflamed due to natural wear and tear, obesity or diseases such as arthritis. Fortunately, there are joint supplements that can help relieve these symptoms and improve mobility for our feline friends. However, it's important to know how to properly choose a joint supplement for cats to ensure we're giving our pet the best possible product.

First of all, it's important to understand that not all joint supplements are created equal. It's important to read labels and check ingredients to ensure that the product contains active ingredients such as glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM. These ingredients are known to help improve joint health by helping to repair damaged cartilage and reducing inflammation.

It's also important to check the dosages of the active ingredients. Most studies of joint supplements for cats use dosages of 500 to 1500 mg glucosamine per day, along with similar dosages of chondroitin and MSM. It's important to ensure that the product you choose contains similar dosages to guarantee that your cat receives the necessary therapeutic benefits.

It's also important to check the form of food supplement you choose. Joint supplements may be available as powders, tablets or liquids. Powders and tablets may be easier to administer, but liquids may be more rapidly absorbed by the body. It's important to choose the form best suited to your cat's taste and ease of ingestion.

It's also important to consult your vet before giving your cat a dietary supplement for joints. Your veterinarian can help you determine whether a dietary supplement is necessary for your cat, and if so, which product would be most appropriate. He or she can also give you advice on how to give the supplement correctly.

Symptoms of joint problems

Cats are experts at concealing pain, and can show subtle signs of joint problems. Look out for the following changes

  • Reduced mobility: Difficulty jumping, climbing or using the litter box.
  • Stiffness: Particularly noticeable after a period of rest.
  • Behavioral changes: Less playfulness, irritability or social withdrawal.
  • Incomplete grooming: Areas not cleaned properly due to pain.
  • Lameness: Even slight lameness may indicate inflammation or joint discomfort.

Managing joint problems in cats

The management of joint problems in cats is based on a global approach, including diet, medical treatment and environmental adaptation.

Specialized nutrition

  • Kibbles for joints: Contain ingredients such as glucosamine, chondroitin and omega-3, which help protect and regenerate cartilage.
  • Weight management: An appropriate diet is crucial to reduce pressure on joints.

Dietary supplements

  • Glucosamine and chondroitin: Promote joint health and flexibility.
  • Omega-3: Reduce inflammation and pain.
  • Plant extracts: Such as harpagophytum, known for its anti-inflammatory properties.

Medical treatments

  • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs): Prescribed by the vet, they reduce pain and inflammation.
  • Analgesics: For moderate to severe pain.
  • Injections of cartilage-protecting substances: such as hyaluronic acid.

Improving the environment

  • Adapted accessories: Install ramps to facilitate access to high places, or litter boxes with low edges.
  • Orthopedic beds: Provide comfortable support and joint relief.

Physiotherapy

  • Gentle exercises: Recommended by a veterinarian to maintain mobility without exacerbating pain.
  • Massages: Help relax muscles around joints.

Preventing joint problems

To minimize the risk of joint problems, certain preventive measures are recommended:

  1. Weight control: Limit excess weight to reduce the load on joints.
  2. Balanced diet: Include essential nutrients to support joint health.
  3. Regular but moderate activity: Maintain a level of physical activity suited to the cat's energy level and age.
