    2 6wk kitten both walking funny
    Hi there. Okay I have 2 6wk old kittens. They are both doing the same thing. One started about a day or two before the other. When they walk, they walk kind of slow and walk with their hind legs in towards their front legs. They are not playful like they use to be and just lay around. They are not eating like use to either so they feel much skinnier. They would rather lay down or just sleep. This has happened within the past 4 days or so. Could this be some type of disease? They did have fleas since day one that we struggled to get rid of. They are gone now. Could they have gotten some kind of disease from the fleas? Please help. I really don't have the money to take them to the vet. I feel really bad for them.

    What did you do to get rid of the fleas? Kittens and puppies get poisoned by or have neurological problems from over the counter products regularly - and it's a tragedy because people either don't read or don't understand the directions on those products, think they are safe and think they are doing the right thing.
