Symptoms of feline rickets include: the cat will sit in a human-like posture, have a stiff tail, have deformed and enlarged bones in its legs and feet or other parts, and be unsteady when walking. When a cat experiences this kind of phenomenon, the owner needs to feed the cat drugs such as chondroitin to relieve the cat’s pain. In addition, most cats with rickets are cats with folded ears.

Tip:

Folded-eared cats are derived from genetic mutations, so they are born with some genetic defects, and rickets are one of them. All fold-eared cats are born with genetic defects. All cats suffer from rickets. Although they may not necessarily develop the disease, there is a possibility of developing the disease at any time. Moreover, rickets are currently incurable and can only be alleviated by medication.
