Just like us humans, when cats age, they become susceptible to aging bodily conditions such as arthritis. Older cats will start moving stiffer than they have in the past. Sometimes when older cats get arthritis, or even when they don’t, their older age will make them more at risk for fractures in their pelvis.
Have you noticed that cats are very resilient pets with incredibly high pain tolerances? While other animals (ie: dogs), will absolutely let you know when they get hurt by barking or whining loudly, a cat’s high pain tolerance makes it somewhat easier for them to live with an injury without making it known to you they’re in pain.
Is your cat in need of a brushing? No, we’re not talking about their fur. Cats of all ages, from kittens to older cats, can benefit from regular teeth cleanings.
Do your cat’s paws look irritated, red, or swollen? Are they soft to the touch and cause your cat to walk around with a limp? There can be many reasons why your cat’s paws are irritated and causing them discomfort.
