Osteoporosis is a weakening of the bone matrix to the point that the bones can break under normal conditions such as walking, sitting, standing, etc. This can happen in any animal with calcified bones, although it is rare in companion animals as commercial blended diets (such as Purina, Iams-Eukanuba, Hill's, Royal Canin, etc.) are formulated with sufficient calcium to prevent this. In addition, most companion animals do not go through a process like menopause, which is linked to osteoporosis in human females.
