Unfortunately my 6 month old male kitten injured his left back leg pretty badly last night. There seems to be three fractures in his back leg.
Sadly I can't afford an orthopedic surgeon, so I have to go with a cast. However my vet feels confident he'll recover in the next 4-6 weeks.
So picking him up later tonight, but I need to make sure he doesn't move around much. Going to order him this cage:
Hopefully it'll be enough space for food, water, and litter. Is there anything else I can provide?
Anyone that had a cat that injured them selves similarly have any advice on what I should do over the next few weeks?
Honestly mostly worried how he'll react to the smaller litter box since the current one he has access to is larger then the entire cage. Also worried since he is a kitten and has a lot of energy.
Thoughts?
