Last month , my cat seems to have limping on his one leg . Vet have palpated on his both legs . One side seems to be abit swollen . She suspected sprain so we let him 3-4 days and it recovers back . Blood test result show no diabetes issue .

Yesterday & Today , we noticed he got limping on one of his front limb . Contacted the vet . Unfortunately , all the vet clinics in my country (small country !) have no x-ray facility for feline .... We can only suspect it could be Arthritis due to his weight 7 KG and age (7 years old - human calendar) .

FYI , transition of Royal Canin dry food for him is in progress . Blood test show he got a bit high reading in his liver . So we are slowly changing his diet to RC Renal dry food .

I just bought the Maximum Joint suppl awhile ago . Planning to feed him later .

Cats can develop arthritis at quite an early age so yours might well have the start of it. Hopefully the joint supplement will help but may take a few weeks for you to see any improvement. Just keep monitoring him. Good luck, I hope they do the trick.
