Our 3-year old DEW/Silver (?) MF male, Whitey, was discovered this morning with some problems. A wierd combination, none apparently life-threatening, and I don't trust the emergency vet, so am waiting until we can get in to our regular vet this week. But I wanted your opinion on what it could be. He is carrying his right rear leg up. He's not dragging it, but keeping it curled under him and walking on 3 legs. I took a short digital video and can send it to anyone interested in viewing it. It's time for nail-trimming, so it's possible he caught a nail and hurt (sprained? dislocated?) his leg, although there's no sign of it on his nails. They have a large cage, but there are very few places he could have fallen any distance. Also, his left eye appears a little swollen, athough that appearance may just be because there's some dark "staining" around it. What the darkness looks like... when a cat I know got an eye infection, and it was oozing. But there's no drainage at Whitey's eye that we can see. And this may be just us overreacting because of the leg. Lastly, he's lethargic. He will get up and walk around, but isn't playing like usual. He's eating ok, and drinking fine. With 7 in the cage, we didn't notice yesterday if he was peeing & pooping good, but we'll watch that today. He does have a thinning tail which started less than a month ago, so we suspect adrenal problems, and planned on a regular visit in July, and thought it could wait until then. Any thoughts on what this might be would be appreciated. Debbie Tipsy (the cat) and the Seven Dwarves (Kissy, Snuffy, Coco, Whitey, Frosty, Robbie and Burnie) [Posted in FML 5649]
