Feline Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: Caring for Cats Living with EDS

Life with EDS: My Journey and Tips for Owners

Hello humans,

As a feline with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a group of connective tissue disorders that affects my skin and joints, I want to share my experience with you. Collagen, the protein responsible for strength and elasticity in various tissues in the body, is abnormal in cats with EDS, leading to extremely fragile skin prone to tears and scars. My joints are also very lax, making it hard for me to move and play like other cats.

Internal issues may also arise, such as weakened blood vessels and muscular diaphragms and perineum rupture, which may lead to infections and difficulties in receiving intravenous fluids. That’s why it’s crucial to have proper diagnosis through skin extensibility tests and laboratory examination of skin samples to determine the changes in collagen.

Despite these challenges, I can live a happy life with care and attention. It’s important to keep my environment safe by removing sharp and rough objects to reduce the risk of injury. If you have a cat with EDS, be patient and gentle with them, and make sure they get the care they need. Severely affected kittens may not survive, but cats with a mild or moderate form of the condition generally live a normal lifespan.

Remember, we may have fragile skin, but we have big hearts and lots of love to give.
