Consequently, they will do whatever they must to keep up the illusion that they feel fine, even in the face of significant, life-altering chronic pain. Recognizing feline pain means understanding the behavior changes that are clues to discomfort. Tips of cracking cats masquerading as pain-free. Getting cats to the vet continues to be an issue, and tips are offered. Explanations included encouraging exercise/enrichment and various products which can help with a multimodal approach, including the monoclonal antibody Solensia.
