STRIDE
PLUS FELINE Research:
In 2002 a survey of 100 cats over the age of 12 showed that 90% of these cats 
had degenerative joint disease (DJD). The hips and stifles were affected and 
significant elbow lesions were found in 17%. (Hardie EM et al. 2002)
Another study by Dr. Godfrey found that 22% of 292 cats showed evidence of 
radiographic osteoarthritis (OA), of which 33% had clinically evident OA. 
(Godfrey DR. 2005)
Joint Problems
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:

2006, D. Bennett and SP Clarke assessed a group of 28 cats with clinical OA and 
reported on the clinical signs and the frequency of joints affected. They found 
that the elbow (45%) and hip joints (38%) were the most commonly affected 
joints. (Clarke SP, et al. 2006)

A study of the prevalence and clinical features of OA in 100 cats by L.I. Slingerland 
showed the prevalence of OA in cats aged ≥ 6 years is 61% and increase with age. 
The elbows, hips, shoulders, and tarsi are the most commonly affected joints.
