When we got cooper from the humane society we noticed that he didnt like to be picked up (expecially by the kids). We also noticed that sometimes when he would jump down from something he would kind of meow. Well lately its getting worse he walks kind of stiff leggend at times and sometimes when he jumps down from this he will cry and then just drop and drag his back legs. I am gonna call the vet but need some ideas of what could be wrong.
When we got him he was severly underweight and i was wondering if hi nutrition wasnt tht good if he might have some bone problems in his hips or back legs. Or we dont know what his life was like before just that he was found taped up in a shoe box.
Now plz dont jump me at this but I have been going through a lot of stuff andnot sure that I can handle something else right now.
If its a quick easy fix no problem money wise. But my husband wont spent hundreds of dollars on him and has already said that if its gonna cost alot he will take him back to the shelter.
He isnt declawed so its not troubles with that nor does anything look broken. He has full range on motion when I manipulate his back legs and doesnt seem to be in pain when I move them.
If my husband makes me take him back though he prob wont find a home and will spend the rest of his life in a cage as they are a no kill.
I feel like its one thing after another. I do not want to take him back to the shelter as they wont do anything for the legs anyway. Its just one more thing for my hubby and I to fight about.
