Hi,

My cat is semi wild semi domestic- i.e. she comes and goes & is not house bound. I keep cat food & water for her.

She delivered 3 breech babies on 10 oct none survived.

She was Ok for 3 days after that- then she disappeared for a week and has returned ( I tried searching but to no avail)

Now she finds it a prblem to climb onto the bed. I noticed that her hind leg was giving her problem. She is a rather longish cat ( unlike her mother who is small & compact-also semi wild/domestic)

I can't take her to the vet as she will not stay for long. Was wondering if this could be apost pregnancy problem or she could have been hit by a vehicle. Her tail is not upright but is midway. She keeps stretching the hind legs and arching her body.

Would like to know if she is suffering from anything serious - I am giving her a homeopathic treatment of Arnica which helps to heal any kind of hurt. Other than hurt am nt sure what to do- she is very alert otherwise

I don't think anyone on here can tell you what is wrong with her. Another pregnancy and attempt at giving birth may kill her. It would be kind of you to get her spayed. She may get upset over a vet visit, but I am sure that they could deal with her.

There are a lot of things that could be wrong with the cat, from poison to an accident to a serious infection if she has a dead kitten still inside her. Live trap, vet, spay, and whatever other treatment she needs is the best thing for her.
