Arthritis in animals is primarily caused by wear and tear on joints, often due to aging, obesity, or genetic predispositions. Inflammatory conditions, such as autoimmune diseases or infections, can also lead to arthritis. Additionally, previous injuries or trauma to the joints may increase the risk of developing arthritis later in life. Environmental factors and a lack of proper nutrition can further exacerbate joint health issues in animals.
