When we first got our new kitten at 5 months old the vet told us he has luxating patellas but didn't seem too worried about it. I've done some Google searches and nothing I've skimmed over looks benign with it. A few articles even talk about surgery though that's on older cats that have dislocated their patellas. What does this mean? Will he always have luxating patellas? Will that cause him to lead a different life than other cats? Sometimes it seems like he has trouble jumping down from high up and he's a bit clumsy but I'm not sure if that's the patellas or his kittenhood. He's 6 months old now.
