NORMAL JOINT STRUCTURE
People happily buy over-the-counter joint supplements with no idea what they are or
how they might help. Understanding the treatment options of degenerative arthritis requires an understanding of what is normal. Here is a brief review.
This page resides in our new Arthritis / Joint Disease Center. This information center is
still under construction, so there aren’t many additional pages yet, but we did update and expand the Medications for Degenerative Arthrits page and give it a home in the
Arthritis Center (it will also still be accessable from the Pharmacy Center). Read on
for more details about the normal joint on the newest page in The Pet Web Library.
FELINE LYMPHOMA
Feline lymphoma accounts for one third of all cancers in cats, and its clinical picture has changed completely in the fifteen years following the introduction of widespread
feline leukemia virus vaccination. For all of you who have eMailed us asking when there would be a new addition to the Lymphoma Education Center in the The Pet Web Library, here it is.
HEMANGIOSARCOMA
No matter where this tumor is found, it is bad news. Hemangiosarcoma is a blood
vessel cancer that is highly malignant and is usually a challenge to treat. At least one form is curable with surgery if caught early. Will you know it if you see it? Visit this page in The Pet Web Library for some pointers.
HEPATIC LIPIDOSIS
Cats were not designed to ever get fat. Their metabolism was geared towards multiple
small prey meals a day. Domestication has changed their lifestyle, but not their physiology, and because of this, when a cat stops eating, liver failure is not far away.
Why? Read the newest page in The Pet Web Library to find out.
