Best Pain Relief Tips for Tripawd Dogs and Cats

This month’s survey about phantom pain in animal amputees reminds us of the frequency of post-amputation pain in cats and dogs. All of us here have lost sleep over the pain signals given by our dogs and cats. Since our animals can’t tell us in words that they’re in pain, deciphering their hints is tricky. Once we do, treating the pain is the next hurdle.

Tripawd Wyatt shows he hurts.
