We went away for the weekend and when we returned, Simba was limping. The next morning we brought her in and had an x-ray done. We found a break on the upper left femur (Front left leg right near the top joint). Since it was near the joint, they had to put a few brackets and pins on to hold it together, a cast would not do.
It's been a week now and when she stands still, she uses the leg, however, when she walks she carries it. Feeling the muscle, its gorged and un-usable...
Can someone tell me if this is normal and will it fix it's self in time? We have a follow up in another week but I was hoping to get some info as to if we can do anything for her. She does not seem to be in pain.
Thanks,
Ray
