Could your cat or dog be in pain
from arthritis? Pets hide their pain for as long as possible. By the time a pet
vocalizes discomfort (from for example a sudden movement), the pet has already
been experiencing a considerable amount of pain. Pets in pain may pant,
pace, not want to eat, become suddenly shy or aggressive and just not act like
themselves. Don't wait for your pet to vocalize their pain from
arthritis. If you notice any of these subtle signs below, be sure to
check with your veterinarian right away. The following signs can be
symptoms of arthritis:
- Difficulty or hesitation to sit down or get up
- Difficulty jumping up or reluctance to climb stairs
- Lameness in one or more limbs
- Stiffness in the morning that improves as the day progresses
- Subtle signs that the pet may not want to put weight on the limb
- Sensitivity when touched in certain areas
