 Cats are natural athletes, but over time, this high level of activity can affect their health. This may mean that your cat is suffering from joint strain. Regardless of whether your cat suffers from arthritis, provide places for your cat to climb and hide. For example, you can prepare two cardboard boxes with a door cut out and put a comfortable bed and dry food in them. You should observe in which places the cat stays most willingly, unused boxes can be removed. Being overweight can put additional stress on your cat's joints, so keeping his body weight down is beneficial. If your cat is overweight, you should consult your doctor about choosing an appropriate diet. Fortunately, arthritis can be treated. With proper treatment and regular checkups, you can not only improve your cat's health but also increases quality of life.
