Hi guys.
so I found my cat this morning hiding under the bed and licking her self for hours.
and when she came out, I found her limping. she was in pain with one of her leg.
she hissed at me when I was trying to check her paw. but at the same time, she was still sitting on that side (pain leg)
and was able to move little bit but I saw the leg was shaking little bit.
I took her to the vet right away and he said she's fine. it's just sprain muscle. he banded her leg and found nothing is broken and told us she should be fine.
he prescribed Metacam for 1 week for her pain relief. but I debating I should just let her heal itself without giving this medication or not.
I heard pain killer is not good and I checked many forums here people were against to it.
do you think it's ok for me to just leave her without medication? will she be in pain? if this medication doesn't actually do anything and just kill the pain,
I would rather keep her out of it (she seems not much in pain anyways now. she didn't yelp at all when the vet was trying to twist her leg)
I need your advice. it's Metacam Oral suspension for cats.
thanks!!
