if its any consolation Harvey Pickles had a similar thing.. took him to the vets - coughed up the money - he got an anti-inflam injection and was fine.
Vet said he probably sprained it slightly by jumping or landing awkwardly.
Next day he was fine!
Does Brian put his paw down if he is sitting ???
He's probably just twisted it!!
My pussy cat went to the vets a couple of months back because he was sneezing all over the place and was off his food. He was none to keen where the vet stuck his
thermometer! After a week of antibiotics and vitamins he soon picked up. It was
expensive but he is worth it. I hope your cat recovers from his sore paw soon.
Hope he's ok Ummmm. My poor wee Rufus had another fit at 5 this morning and fell all the way down the stairs. He was surprisingly fine after it, I was sure he'd have done himself some damage.
