Oh, the poor thing. I hope she will be alright. I am afraid I can't give you any advice on that one. Are there any other signs of illness or injury?

nope her legs look fine they dont appear to be broken. she is very fat and heavy, so i havent a clue as to what is wrong with her.

Sorry I cant think of anything that may help, I just suggest keeping her comfortable and warm to reduce the stress. She may have a strain or have injured the tendon somehow!

It almost sounds like a stroke, is anything scaring them?

the cat checks them out sometimes but i dont think he pounces at them or anything, sounds resonable.
