My cat seems to have trouble with stairs and can't run up them like he used to. Is something wrong?
He doesn't limp when just normal walking. Is this normal with age?

The challenge then is how to help your cat. Most anti-inflammatory medications that can be used in dogs aren’t safe for cats. Lifestyle changes are important, such as giving your cat a number of steps to get to where he wants to go. For example, if he likes to sit on the table with you but can’t jump up there, you can put a chair in a spot where he can leap to the chair and then to the table. Weight management is also important, and there are some nutriceuticals that may help to support his joints.
It’s time to take him to your vet for an evaluation and to have a chat about what options are available to make your puss feel better.
