Joint Plus' main ingredient is Glucosamine, a natural supplement that may stimulate the production of substances that help maintain the health and resiliency of joints and their connective tissues and is also easily absorbed. It may help to treat arthritis and also help prevent cartilage degeneration. Glucosamine is used in the body to create the cushion that surrounds joints. In osteoarthritis, the cushion that surrounds the joints becomes thinner and stiff, so taking glucosamine might help supply the materials needed to rebuild it. Oftentimes, Chondroitin is given along with glucosamine because its use may increase the efficacy of the glucosamine.
Joints Plus was created to support the whole cat. Its formula contains several extra ingredients that help support total health. It contains Vitamin C, an antioxidant that is important for the healing of wounds and is also used in many metabolic reactions. Vitamin E, another important antioxidant, is involved in immune function. Another ingredient is Manganese, which is a necessary part of a number of enzymes that are essential in detoxification of damaging free radicals.

Great Tasting
I have two cats over 15 years of age. I have been giving them Joint Plus for several years and it has really help their mobility, plus they like the taste of it!
on Pet's Prefer for the past 2 years
My old girl cat Freida Needlefeet is nearly 19 years old. About 2 years ago she started loosing mobility in her legs. i put her on Pet's Prefer for Cats and within 2-3 weeks she was able to run and leap again. Now 2 years later she's still running around like a wild thing.
"See Freida run. Run Freida run!"
A playful and energetic kitty
My cat Sassy is 10 years old. I first started noticing her joint problems when she was having a hard time jumping onto the counter where I keep her food. I was so worried about her because she was healthy in every other way, and she might have a long time to live. It would be so hard for her to not be able to get around. I started her on this supplement, and it really made a difference. She has no problem getting up to her food any more, and she's still really playful. I'm so happy that this helps her quality of life.
Great results within a week.
Our cat McGee moved in when he was about 7 years old. He seemed older than that, walked with a limp and didn't move too fast. We started him on Pets-Prefer Joint Plus, crushing and adding it to his breakfast and dinner. Within a week he was no longer limping and within 2 weeks he was moving like a normal cat. That was 6 years ago and he's still doing fine, and loving life being spoiled, sleeping on his own heated bed, being tucked into bed every night with my husbands tee-shirt-of-the-day for a blanket. Oh, yes, he continues to get his Joint Plus every morning. We are shocked as to how fast he can run when he needs to! By the way, another character moved in a few months ago pretty well stoved up in his hip area. He's been named Roscoe, get's his Joint Plus with breakfast and also enjoys being cocooned in his beach towel for the night.
