Cosequin is a "natural remedy" that is said to help older cats with joint problems. It's similar to a remedy that people with arthritis use and they also make it for dogs, horses and who knows what else. I had gotten it for Tubby and it did seem to make him more limber, and I know Catsnclay's Fluffy takes it also and she has said it works for him too, so have your sister check it out. Do a Google for "Cosequin for Cats" It's a little on the expensive side, but not too bad if you get it online compared to at the vet where it down right is expensive.
