I have a 17 yo male DSH - orange and white tabby. He is like my child....Anyway, his only real history is that he has recently begun kidney failure within the last 2 years. Still doing okay, just much thinner and thirstier, but we deal with it. I do let him in the back yard once in awhile because he doesn't leave. But 2 days ago another cat entered and there was a fight. I broke it up and got him inside - but the next morning he was limping on one of his rear legs. I do not see any puncture wounds or anything in his pads. I'm wondering if he jumped up or off the fence to get away from the fight? Day 2 seems worse. He puts some weight on it to go walk to the litter box or to eat, but mostly laying around. What can I do for him? I plan to take him to the vet on Friday when I'm off work, if he's still limping. Any other advice? anything for pain?
