What are the symptoms of a slipped disc in cats?
It's unlikely that a cat would have a slipped disc for two reasons: a) cats have short lives (what are the chances of a 14 year old human having a slipped disc?) b) cats are not bipedal organisms, therefore the pressure on their discs is minimal compared to ours. However, if a cat were to have a slipped disc, the symptoms would be impossible to determine without an MRI, as we cannot ask our cats to describe how they feel. If you suspect your cat of having a slipped disc, then take it to a vet. Though I should mention that any pinched nerve in a cat is more likely caused by a cyst than a herniation.

What are some common treatments for a slipped disk?
Chronic back pain, numbness, weakness are all symptoms of a slipped disk. Minor cases can be treated with cold and/or hot packs followed by stretching exercises as the condition improves.

Discectomy removes disk material that is pressing on a nerve; laminotomy removes a thin part of the vertebrae. Many procedures are performed with minimally invasive laser surgery.
