Timmy's hurt his leg


Let the boys out of their little 'bedroom' this morning and i noticed that Timmy isn't putting one of his front paws down. He tries but just sits there looking all sorry for himself and crying

He tried to get up on my lap this morning for a cuddle. He jumped but you could tell he wasn't comfortable. He's sleeping now, poor dab.

I'm gonna keep him in today to see how he goes and if he's still having problems it's a trip to the vets for little Timmy.

I wonder if Timmy has cut his paw on something, Nae? Have a look at it if he'll let you. Even the tiniest cut is very uncomfortable for them

Re: Timmy's hurt his leg


No there's no cut. He's quite happy for me to touch his paws but if I touch his wrist he cries and wriggles.

I'm wondering if he was playing with Ginge last night, things got a little bit wild and he landed awkward and sprained it

Poor Timmy.
Hopefully he'll mend quickly, being so young.

I hope Timmy'll be fine really soon. Hopefully it'll get better on it's own without recourse to the vet though if it's a bone/joint thing it may be worth them giving him a quick once-over . . .

Re: Timmy's hurt his leg


Well he's managed to crawl up the front of my jeans to sit on my lap and he's walking better on it

He can't really jump down tho, when he does his leg buckles under him.

Re: Timmy's hurt his leg

Re: Timmy's hurt his leg


He's been kept in all day and he's slept for most of it.

He is walking on it okay but still has difficulty landing on it.
