I started giving my arthritic 16 year-old cat 500mg of Glucosamine a day starting about 2 weeks ago. Her progress is amazing! They're 1000mg capsules which I open and sprinkle half on a can of wet food mixed well.
She wasn't moving from her bed very often and was no longer leaving the bedroom to walk around the apartment. She was getting crotchety from the discomfort. I'm currently clearing up a financial backlog so the vet is out until the end of the year because I would like to have her checked out and see if there's anything else she needs to remain comfortable and active.
Has anyone else used Glucosamine and gotten really good responses as well?
What are some other OTC or home remedies worth trying for an older cat?
