Please help. You guys were so great when I first adopted my little girl, I hope you can help now.
My vet is already closed.
I got home from work not that long ago and it seems like Peanut may have dislocated her left rear knee.
She is favoring her right hind leg, and limping a little bit with her left leg. There is sort of a divet on the left side along the joint area. Her left knee is not swollen or hot, and she is allowing me to feel the joint, but the joint area does feel slightly different on her left side than on her right. She is walking around for the most part a-ok, just a bit of a limp.
Does this sound like a dislocation? Somehow pulled a kitty muscle? Made a tendon angry?
Please advise what further info you need - Is this an EMERGENCY VET NOW situation? Can it wait til the morning when my vet that accepts her insurance is open?
Could it be just.... gas? She totally just farted on me....
