Hello everyone,
Rosy from Miami here. So I was hoping you all could ease my mind tonight. I have three babies and my younger luffy is just about 7-8 weeks old. We found him on the parking lot of our apartment complex when he was just days old, and we couldn't just leave him there! Anyhow we've had him for a bit and he's a bit of a feisty baby very energetic and has taken a liking to climbing up clothes in our closet...today I came home and he's limping
He does walk on it every once and a while, no crying but you can tell he's uncomfortable. He holds his paw up a lot and looks at us, so he does move it around and I've seen he lays on it. I'm thinking he was trying to climb and on one of those he fell down? Possibly hurt himself but I am not sure if since he's so young and he's not fully developed he's really done some damage. I've been reading things online and it's only freaked me out more than helping me. Is there a way to tell if it's a sprain ? Can I treat it at home? We don't have the funds to have him seen professionally at this time so I want to check my options out and hopefully get some opinions. I am so worried he is only a baby and I don't want him to keep hurting.
I'm new on this forum so I thank you all in advance for reading my thread and taking the time to help. Anxiously awaiting your replies.
