@MrJoshua216 my cat had a splint on for about two months. he usualy lift it up and walked 3 legged, but sometimes he used the splint as the bone, and walked on the leg.

I thought my kitten broke her lag last night. She is 6 months, she got tangled up in a hanging toy. I heard these really strange meows, I thought she'd come into heat or something. And she was hanging there by her leg! Poor thing, she is alright though.

@Vitaminwater97 That is neither cheaper and faster. I've seen strays with broken leg bones just like that. They heal on their own. The only side effect is that they will walk funny for the rest of their 8 lives.
