4 Nutritional Supplements For Cats in Pain

 Cats speak, but in different ways, about pain!

Despite the fact that they cannot speak, cats may communicate their pain in a different manner. These feline creatures benefit greatly from being able to conceal their pain or discomfort, especially when they are out in the wild and in the presence of predators that watch for signals of their weakness so as to attack them. However, this ability to conceal pain creates a significant issue if your cat is unwell or injured and you are unaware of the problem.


The phrase "assume pain" was coined by pain management specialists in veterinary medicine due to the difficulty in diagnosing pain in cats. As a result, if your cat is found to have a medical issue, pain management will be a component of the treatment.


Expert advise on detecting pain in cats

I recently had a chat with a pain management specialist in cat hip pain regarding signs of pain in cats that one can check off and give a veterinarian for guidance on whether the cat has pain or not. That was when I noticed that my cat was not using the litter box.


She began by saying that, in her experience working at Pet Lab Joint Care, many cat owners mistook their cats' elimination outside of the litter box for an intentional attempt to annoy their owners.She stressed that the majority of feline litter box avoidance instances are stress-related, which is made worse if the cat's owner chooses to punish the animal because it makes it more difficult to determine the true cause.


She went on to say that cats who avoid their litter boxes frequently tend to be in pain, which might be validated by keeping an eye out for other pain-related symptoms, like:


Change in activity level
Self mutilation
Change in daily routines
Hissing or growling
Change of posture of walking, sleeping, or sitting
Facial expressions
Poor coat conditions
Aggression
