1 month kitten limping

Question
I'm taking care of stray cats outside our apartment. With another person that lives in the apartment. There is a adorable 1 month old kitten. Started limping today or late last nite. He/she gets around, but limping. Don't know if I should take the kitten to the vet or not. As long as the kitten is moving around, I thought to wait a while.

Answer
Hi Rose, if the kitten is limping for more than half a day he should be checked. Kittens can often get bruises and twists etc but if he is still limping after 12 hours then you would want to get it checked in case it is broken. If it is broken and left too long then it is very difficult to fix and can cause more trauma for the kitten.
