๐พWellness Wednesday ๐พ this week is bought to you by Cooper, who has a very important message to share with his dog buddies! ๐ถ๐ชต
๐พWellness Wednesday๐พ - ARTHRITIS ๐ฆด Arthritis put simply, is loss of cartilage (the cushioning at the end of the bones) which leads to joint disease ๐ฑ This results in inflammation, pain and joints with reduced range of motion ๐ถ Often more than 1 joint is affected - commonly knees, hips and elbows ๐ก Affects 80% of dogs over 8 years and is the most common cause of chronic pain in dogs ๐ก90% cats over 12 years have evidence of osteoarthritis on xrays ๐ฉบ Common signs include - stiffness, changes to gait, reluctant to jump up/down or with stairs, increased sleep, grooming less frequently leading to matted coat, grumpy behaviour towards humans/other animals, reduced interest in play ๐Osteoarthritis is painful and will affect the quality of our pets lives, but.... ๐ฉโโ๏ธThe good news is, there's lots we can do to support them and make them more comfortable. Here at Anrich Vets we believe in a multi-modal approach to achieve great results, some of which include: โช๏ธ Joint supplements โช๏ธ Medications - daily or once monthly injections โช๏ธ Reducing obesity โช๏ธ Adaptations to environment - stairs/ramps, mats to help grip on slippery floors, litter trays with lower sides, raised feeding bowls etc โช๏ธ Controlled exercise to keep our pets moving but reduce stress and strain on the joints โช๏ธ Hydrotherapy/Physiotherapy We've included some useful resources for you: ๏ฟฝhttps://www.zoetis.co.uk/_locale-assets/pdf/cat-osteoarthritis-pain-checklist.uk.pdf ๐ถhttps://caninearthritis.co.uk/ โ๏ธ We we will soon be introducing our new chronic pain management clinics, please contact us for more information or to book an appointment. If there's other topics you'd like us to include - comment below!
