Is your senior pet slowing down… or could they be living with arthritic pain?
Many dogs and cats don’t cry out when they’re in chronic pain. Instead, the signs can be subtle:
- Slower to get up after resting
- Hesitating to jump into the car or onto the couch
- Difficulty climbing stairs
- Sleeping more than usual
- Becoming less playful or interactive
- Changes in temperament or grooming
The good news is that arthritic pain doesn’t have to be accepted as a normal part of ageing. We can help them enjoy their walks again.
Modern monthly arthritis injections have transformed the way we manage chronic joint pain in both dogs and cats. Many pets become more comfortable, move more freely, enjoy walks again, play more, and simply return to being themselves. For many families, it’s like getting a little piece of their younger companion back.
If you’ve noticed your pet slowing down, we’d love to help.
A simple assessment in the comfort of your own home can determine whether arthritis may be affecting your pet’s quality of life and discuss the treatment options best suited to them.
Contact Dr Lloyd’s Mobile VetCARE to arrange a home consultation and help your best friend stay comfortable, active and enjoying life.
