Hi, I just got a foster cat with a cast on her entire rear leg. I have her in a big pet pen so she is safe, but she is utterly miserable. She meows loudly every time she moves, and ambulates by rolling around and dragging her leg behind her awkwardly. Today she had poop all over the pet pen. I’m using a cardboard box that came with a palate of canned food as a litter box but clearly this isn’t big enough (I thought the low sides might help her). She’s sweet and purrs up a storm when petted.
Question: have you ever cared for a cat in a cast? Do you have any suggestions re: how I can help her, make it easier for her to get around, etc? Any info would be helpful. Thanks so much.
