A 7-year-old male neutered DSH is presented because it has an abnormal gait (walking with the hocks touching the ground) and posture.

On further questioning, the owner reveals that the cat has been losing weight for the last 2 months, during which time it has also been noticeably polydipsic and polyuric.
