Cat's paw hurts, runny nose, acting strange

by Robin
(Brooklyn, NY)

My cat Lenny, has all of a sudden started acting strange. It seems his right front paw is in pain and he will hiss if it is touched, he is much more irritable than normal. I thought he might have just twisted it as he runs around like a maniac.. but his nose is slightly runny and a piece of poo was hanging out it's butt and I dont think it knew... Is this normal?? I don't think it's feline leukemia.. but is it anything more than a twisted ankle that is causing his body pain?? thanks for your help.

Hi Robin
I will be honest with you, there is no way that any one could say what is wrong with your cat.

All I can say is if he is in any pain at all then all you can do is to take him to the vets as soon as possible.

Your cats behavior definately does not sound normal and with the poop issue to I think your cat definately at the very least needs a check up.

I hope all is well soon

best wishes Kate
