Herbal treatments
Hi there,
one of my cats has started to get arthritis in one of her hips (she was hit by a car about 4 years ago, and her hip was dislocated about 2 inches out the socket). We were lucky enough they were able to manipulate it back whilst she was under from her x-ray, so no surgery was required, but we noticed she would not go out in the winter. We took her to the vets recently and she was given Metacam (?) and it has helped (she is running round like a lunatic). Obviously this is a little expensive (not that that is an issue), but I was wondering if anyone had used any herbal / homeopathic remedies to treat arthritis, and if they had been any good?
Thanks,
Emma
