Kitten with a broken leg?

I had a cat {Harry}that was knocked down his one back leg was broken and his pelvis Crushed he wore a hole as big as a half-crown down to the bone

In the three days it took to drag Himself back home

the leg was pinned and the rest left to heal it self

He lived for 16 years he led a full life caught all manner of things

Rabbits as big as himself. he just walked a little crooked so with care and luck your cat should be o.k.

I'm sorry to say that my only experience has been a bad one. But when I adopted my kitten, his fracture had already healed wrong. Since he was 10 weeks old when I got him, I can only assume that your kitten's break should only take a few week to heal. And as long as he doesn't move it too much, it should heal okay on its own.

However, I'm going to ramble on about my kitten's bad and kinda good scenario, maybe it'll give you an idea of what to expect if things go badly..

My little Dusty fractured the growth plate in his right hind leg when he was just a baby, and it healed sideways, so it looks dislocated. He limps, he gimps because that leg never grew as far as the others, and he's going to have arthritis and scoliosis (from how he holds himself to walk) by his early years. Actually, the vet that saw him said he would have developed arthritis by.. now. A bit over a year old.

However, this is kind of good because it prompted me to look into better nutrition for him, so he wouldn't need to live on pain pills his whole life. I put him on a raw diet, so I could ensure he got tons of omegas, glucosamine, and all the other vitamins and minerals that help soothe joint pains. Granted, he's only a year old, but he's not showing any signs of pain or discomfort when he runs, jumps, pounces, and even when he attacks our other kitty, Bandit. Twice now, he's taken a leap of faith from our second floor (we finally put wired fencing across it so they'd stop) and he just got up, brushed it off, and ran after something. He hardly ever sits still! D:

I'm hoping to see this continue into his teens - but I know he won't be a playful, active kitten forever if joint pain hinders him.

Absolute worst case scenario: He'll need it amputated at some point. But I can't see him being any less happy with three legs.

So, despite having a crooked leg, Dusty's as active as ever, and doesn't seem to notice that one of his legs doesn't quite fit with the rest of them.

I know he's a bit young for me to be giving this story, but he's certainly not slowing down yet, which surprised his new vet - especially being told he'd need "Hill's prescription food for mobility before he's a year old so he's not in any discomfort." Pffft, prescription diets.

Anyway, what I'm saying is: I really hope your little furbaby is okay, and that it heals right, and everything goes over well; but even if things go wrong and it doesn't heal perfectly, you can still help her along the way with glucosamine and such vit/min so she doesn't have to stop being a kitten. :3
