Walking with folded ears may be due to illness, or it may be caused by a leg injury. When cats with folded ears become ill, they will become limp and have strong pain. But if it is caused by a leg injury, the cat with folded ears will only show a limp when walking. At this time, it is recommended that the owner take the folded-eared cat to the pet hospital for examination to determine whether it is an internal or external injury. Disinfection and bandaging are required for external injuries, and surgical treatment is required for internal injuries.

Symptoms of the disease in cats with folded ears

1. After cats with folded ears become ill, the most serious lesions are the tail and limbs. The tail will become thicker due to bone hyperplasia, the flexibility will decrease, it will not be able to swing, and it will be painful when touched.

2. After limb lesions, the most obvious manifestation of a folded-eared cat is its reluctance to walk or lameness. The hind limbs will be shorter than the forelimbs and very stiff, causing pain when flexing, causing it to sit in a human-like posture. At the same time, the joints and toes will also be deformed due to swelling of the joints.

3. The general abnormality of toenails is that the pads are thicker than normal cats, and the back paws are also abnormally thick. When the cat sits upright, the pillow meat of the back paws cannot touch the ground.
