Kitten with broken leg

What options are available for kitten that has broken her leg, twice?

Re: Kitten with broken leg


Hi,

It depends on how the kitten has been breaking her legs. Is she an outdoor kitten? Keep her inside. Is she around small children? Keep them away or teach them how to be gentle. Does she enjoy extreme sports like jumping off curtains at full speed? Practice supervised play until she gets older. Is she healthy otherwise? You may want to get some blood tests done to make sure that she doesn't have a metabolic disease. Is she being fed a premium quality diet? Are you oversupplementing with vitamins? Is she a purebred cat? They are more likely to have problems.



Obviously, I need more information to help you and this poor kitty.
