My cat is 11 years old, and he was experiencing odd behavior with the rear half of his body, where it looked like he just didn't have control of his legs sometimes. The vet did much poking and prodding, and she could only be certain he had arthritis along his spine, based on his reaction when she pressed firmly with her fingers. We started him on Cosequin a month and a half ago, one capsule in the am and one in the pm, and he is doing so much better. I haven't seen that odd loss of control, as I call it, and he's been running around like we've taken 5 years off his life. Since my vet charges almost $ (with tax) for a box of 80 capsules, I will definitely be buying Cosequin from Amazon or another online site for the future. I highly recommend Cosequin for older cats.
It really does work February 22, 2006

One of our cats, only seven years old, began to develop a substantial limp in his right front leg. The vet diagnosed arthritis and prescribed Cosequin, which is primarily a combination of Glucosamine and Chondroitin. We've been giving it to our cat for the last half year, and his limp has almost entirely disappeared. Since it's rather unlikely that our cat is experiencing a placebo effect, I'm inclined to credit the Glucosamine and Chondroitin.
After experimenting with dosage, we've settled on three pills a day (the cat is 14.5 pounds), given in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Even if we forget one once in a while it's no big deal (it helps to have one of those daily pill cases to keep track). The cat has gotten very used to having a pill shoved down his throat. One person can lay him on his side, open his jaws, and poke the pill down with the other hand. It only takes a couple of seconds. Of course, your mileage may vary; some cats are terrible at taking pills.
Cosequin is available from many web sites all over the Internet, sometimes even with free shipping. But Amazon has a decent price. It's all the same brand.

After getting this prescribed by my vet, I found I could order the same product at close to a 60% discount from Amazon. This makes both my cat, Bruno, and me estatic!
 My cat loves it May 11, 2008

My cat loves this on her food, and she has been more active since she started taking it several months ago. This is my second box. She's 12 years old, going on 13, and has slowed down a lot in the past year. She has the precursors of arthritis, but no sign of actual arthritis yet, but my vet suggested starting her on this early. I've seen a difference - she's more active and picks on the dog more.
