Impaired function of skeletal joints can dramatically reduce joint flexion, movement and mobility. Cats with joint problems will generally not limp like a dog and recognising joint disease can be difficult. Behavioural changes are a good indicator of severe pain. Hip dysplasia is very common in cats and will often be a significant cause of pain and decreased mobility with age. Symptoms to look for include:

decreased appetite,

poor grooming and matted hair coat,

urinating and defecating outside the litter box,

reluctance to walk or jump

reduced movement.
