My cousin came to me and told me that my cat Thor kept lifting her paw like it was hurt, and told me she was limping. She put Thor down and I saw for myself that she was limping. She would take a few steps, limping, and when she stopped walking, she would lift her paw up.

So I put her down on my lap and I looked at her paw. She wouldn't let me do much, but it didn't look bad.
Then my cousin told me that there was a wasp or some type of stinging bug outside on the porch, and that Thor smacked it with her right paw. So could Thor have been stung? Thanks :)

Yes it's possible that your kitty could've gotten stung.  He also could've landed wrong if jumping.

Its a good possibility she was stung. I would watch to make sure she does not have any allergic reaction to the bug sting.
