After a cat’s leg is broken, the cat will have obvious pain and tenderness. Press the fractured area to see the cat’s reaction. Secondly, there will be swelling and blood bruising at the fractured area.

Whether the cat’s hind leg is fractured, you can judge the fracture from the following points. ​​​​​​​

(1) There will be varying degrees of pain and tenderness when a fracture occurs, with the pain at the fracture site being the most obvious. Because the tip of the fracture can puncture the blood vessels and nerves of the surrounding tissue, the pain worsens during movement.

(2) Fractures often cause surrounding tissue damage, swelling and blood stasis, and purple ecchymoses may appear on the skin. However, for deep fractures, such as femoral neck fractures, local swelling is not obvious.

(3) Due to the influence of external force, muscle pulling, and the weight of the limb or bone itself, the fracture end may be significantly displaced, causing corresponding deformity of the injured limb. If you touch it with your hands, you will often feel unevenness, and severe pain will occur if you press it.

　(4) Due to the interruption of the normal continuity of the bone, soft tissue damage, swelling and pain, and obvious functional impairment. If any part of the leg is broken, it will be difficult to move around, and the activities will be significantly limited.

If it is determined to be a fracture, it can be sent to a pet hospital for bone grafting. The post-treatment and maintenance according to the teachings of professional doctors will be conducive to its recovery and growth.
