Feline lameness is a growing concern, requiring veterinarians to diagnose diverse musculoskeletal conditions. This review covers key categories like trauma, arthritis, and neoplasia, highlighting feline-specific presentations.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Musculoskeletal Diseases
  • Feline Health

Background:

  • Feline lameness is an emerging clinical issue.
  • Veterinary practitioners need expertise in diagnosing feline lameness.
  • Understanding musculoskeletal disorders in cats is crucial for client communication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of feline lameness causes.
  • To categorize common musculoskeletal diseases in cats.
  • To emphasize differences in feline versus canine disease presentation.

Main Methods:

  • Review of common feline musculoskeletal diseases.
  • Categorization of diseases into trauma, arthritis, infectious causes, developmental disorders, neoplasia, and muscular problems.
