  1. I woke up at 7 this morning to find the poor thing limping! she is an inside cat and doesnt ever go outside. I cant afford to take her to the vet ( please dont judge) any suggestions?

  2. Oh no, AM! No judgement here. I cannot afford vet care, either, circumstances change. Anyway... will she let you check her over? Perhaps she has something stuck in her pads. Does she appear to be in pain? Maybe she will let you check her over enough to see if it's a hip or a paw, if it's something obvious (an abcess of some kind). First see if it's something that looks like it will need intervention. That's the best advice I can offer at the moment. Good luck!

  3. Just keep an eye on her. Kittens get into the funnies prediciments. I had a kitten fall out of a Christmas tree and limped for three days and then she was fine. Like humans, maybe she "twisted her ankle" or stubbed a paw. Just make sure she keeps jumping off things to a minimum. Maybe you could help her down off of things verses her jumping. Keep her calm and still, if possible. I know that sounds silly but that is what the vet told me with my kitten (over the phone and for FREE!). Hugs to Akasha!
