Hello, i have 3months old kitten, one day she started limping with front leg. I waited for a week and then took her to the vet, they checked her leg: nothing seems to be broken, all bones are in place, nothing swollen, paws are fine, nerves are fine too, so they did one shot of anti-inflammatory and i went home. It’s now 2 weeks after she was at vet, she is still holding (not all the time) her leg above ground and limping while walking. She is feeling fine, eating fine, playing a lot, climbing, running, jumping, but when she walks she limps, when she is standing on her back legs she leans only with one leg, the another is resting like ‘L’ letter, just hanging like that. I’m pretty worried, because i don’t remember anything that may hurt her leg. What to do? Should i wait more or should i get get her to another vet and do x-ray? 

Thank you very much. (sorry for grammar, my english isn’t fluent)

I'd get her back to the vet and ask for an x-ray, if possible, or go to a different vet for a second opinion.  You could also get a low-dose steroid to help with inflammation.

By the way, your English is perfect!
