Dislocated hips commonly afflict aging cats, and it’s not uncommon for the animal to need a surgery to re-align the hip joint properly. If your cat has undergone a surgery to correct its dislocated hip, it will need your help around its living space to recover fully. Primarily, you’ll need to keep your cat on “cage rest” (securely in its cage or kennel) or confined in a single room for three to four weeks. Make sure the cat receives any prescribed medication, and that it has easy access to food and water. | Dislocated hips commonly afflict aging cats, and it’s not uncommon for the animal to need a surgery to re-align the hip joint properly.
