My 5 month old kitten got her 1st rabies shot on Friday.
Couple of things........she threw up a couple times on Saturday but since then has kept her food down.
Today, Monday she has been acting wierd--not walking on her back legs propering, hunching her back legs down like she is ready to pounce, babying her back legs etc. We called the vets--they were closed due to memorial day--and the vet on call said it is possible she is sore where she got the shot which was in the hips. Is this possible? 3 days later? He said to give her a 1/2 of a baby aspirin. Thoughts please. She walks fine at times but then hunkers her back legs down like something is wrong. She has jumped up on the chair and table. And a couple times she walks just fine. She kinda mumbles and little tinyt meows. But nothing that makes me think she is in distress.
The vet also asked if she was fixed. He said if she is arching her back, and hunching down with she might be going into heat. She isn't fixed yet--will be in a couple weeks. Thoughts please?
This kitten thing is so very new. Any advice would be appreciated.
