my shady doesn't like the cold Wisconsin weather

My cat had his leg amputated almost a year ago, does anyone know if the cold affects arthritis for animals like it does people? He has it in his front paws, he is 14yr old.

I would assume the same laws of physics apply, but I'm no veterinarian.

My dog has had 3 knee surgeries, the fluctuation in temperature here is more an issue than just straight cold I think.

That is a cute kitty. Can I pet the kitty?

Yes it does. The weather change has the same affect. My 8 year old golden has to take glucosamine in the fall/winter

Ask about Dasaquin/Cosequin, and Omega 3/6 supplements. They seem to help my guys.
