4-week old kitten - can't move front legs

[LareFrontz]

I have a 4 week old kitten. We've only had her about 3 days. She was running around and doing just fine. Last night she started favoring her left front leg but nothing major. This morning she can't stand up at all. She is still eating well and going potty with stimulation. She can move her legs a little bit but now cannot stand at all. Please help.

I know it’s probably not what you want to hear, but she needs to see a vet ASAP. This is an emergency.

Yes, let a vet check her up asap .
With a little luck its an virus infection, "limping calici"... This tends to get over by itself...

4 weeks kitten is pretty young, essentially a rescued orphan baby... But this you know.

She probably has a case of calici virus, which can cause temporary paralysis. See that she gets fed and potty her, and she needs full-time supportive care with fluids, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory meds. Do see a vet for meds. She can recover!
