Our DCat had a fight yesterday evening and came back over the fence in a mad rush. He looked like he slipped a little on the fence and caught his foot but it was all too quick to see. He was clearly very shocked and scared - there's a cat he keeps scrapping with, and I think they met each other unexpectedly.
We saw straight away that he had a bit of a limp, but he was fine to rush upstairs and growl at the other cat through the upstairs window! I don't know whether this was adrenaline though, because his limp has got a lot worse over today. This morning he wasn't too bad, purring and lying on his back "like a people" on the bed. Since about 2pm, though, he's gone very quiet and he's meowing / crying if we touch his leg. We rang the vet as soon as he started to go quiet and they said to bring him in tomorrow. We've also given him a little bit of his leftover metacam cat painkiller on his food.
He's definitely got worse since then, though. He's moving about a little, but with a limp and he's very quiet and sad. He's eaten, but doesn't want to move much at all and he still doesn't want us to touch his leg at all. Should we take him to an emergency vet tonight or wait until tomorrow morning's appointment?
