My mother's cat (my cat's sister) is approaching 16 and had been having pretty obvious problems with arthritis, so the vet started her on Dasuquin Advanced ~8 months ago. I was a bit skeptical about the effectiveness, but I've been religiously giving her a full capsule every day.
Interesting enough, over time, her mobility has improved. The other day she was up on a bed where she used to sleep or lounge and look out the window, and I asked my mother if she'd done something like put a box for her to use to jump up. She said no, that she'd gotten up there by herself. She's now regularly back on the bed.
So maybe this glucosamine/chondroitin plus a few other ingredients treatment does work over a period of months. Nothing else has changed in her living situation or diet.
