Comfort and Care: Managing Companion Animal Arthritis with Compassion

Posted 2024-03-08 12:25:14

Recent studies show Companion Animal Arthritis is an epidemic among aging pets:

- Over 50% of dogs over the age of one show evidence of arthritis on radiographs.
- Up to 80% of dogs over eight years may suffer from arthritis to some degree.
- Approximately 20% of indoor cats over the age of one have arthritis, rising to 80% among those over 15 years old.
- Arthritis is the second most common chronic disease found in dogs (next to dental disease).

While arthritis itself is not life-threatening, it can significantly diminish your pet's quality of life if left unmanaged. Pets with severe arthritis often show reluctance to jump, climb stairs or play. They may vocalize or limp when standing up or seem stiff when arising after rest.
