hello!
i have a two year old mix siamese cat called sherry. She is an indoor cat. A couple of days ago while feeding her she was fine and 15 min later she came to me walking on three legs, so i immediately took her to a reputed clinic where they couldn't tell if the leg was fractured so they just gave some pain killers. couple of hours later she was running around playing just fine. only to realize two days later that it only made it worse so i took her to another vet today.
now this vet confirmed it was fractured and he put a cast on it. he also put a cast on the other back leg to support the cast on the other side. This vet now told me that she is not allowed to move at all for the next three weeks.
so i have kept her in her travel box (top removed when im around which is 80% of the time) covered half of the base of the travel box with a blanket (for comfort) and the other half with newspaper and litter sand on it.
i wanted some tips on how i can care for her in this condition and things i can do to make her happy? can i allow my other cat to meet her or should i keep them separate during the healing process?
