Any tips for older kitties with arthritis in their back legs? ❤️ He’s been put on painkillers for a few days to see if that helps, I’ve got him a little ramp to aid getting up and down from his favourite sofa and window spots, and a little heat pad to lie on when he fancies it.
@[email protected] If it doesn't work putting the meds into the wet cat food then there are products like FeliGum which is a bit like a "play dough" for wrapping the pills into it. That way the taste of the pill will be masked. It takes a bit of time though to figure out the way and also the product which suits one's cat.--- As Buddy has also heart trouble and arthritis I've been there, done it, worn the t-shirt... ;-)
