Riassunto

Arthritis doesn't only affect humans and dogs; cats can suffer too. This debilitating condition is on the rise, and while cats' survival instincts mean they don't usually vocalize their pain, it doesn't mean they're not hurting. My Cat Has Arthritis, but lives life to the fullest, gives our feline friends the voice they've been longing for. With expert input from leading feline vets, cat dieticians, and specialists in complementary therapies, this book covers all aspects of the disease, from how to spot the signs, to where to go for help. Areas covered include: the types of feline arthritis; the importance of an early diagnosis; the different kinds of treatment available, and the question of euthanasia for cats whose pain and discomfort sadly cannot be controlled. Featuring moving case histories, owner insight, and lavish color photos, this book is an invaluable companion for all cat owners, and anyone considering getting a cat.
