Cat leg pain

Hi well first a little background on my cat he is a stray kitten i rescued about 2006, he is my little buddy his eyes werent even open and since then he has been my baby, i've had 3 cats before this and compared to him, He runs like a rabbit and has been fine, just now and again his legs hurt him which is normal i feel being he is forty nine. and just want to know if there is something i can do for him at home without going to the vet, oh and he has really big paws his mother had big paws too.

Hi deadman, it's actually not normal for a cats leg to Hurt now and then, , how old is your cat ? Could it be arthritis? It can happen at any age or maybe your little guy possibly injured it and its reoccurring with the slightest wrong movement?
