My 6 yr old female cat jumped from a tree branch about 5 ft high. She is always jumping up onto ledges or down from them, she jumps very high, always climbing trees, etc. Anyway, her front paw is now swollen and she will not walk on it, she limps all around. She does not seem to be in pain, she still goes up and down the steps and jumps on and off the furniture and beds, going to the food dish etc.

Here's a little back story - I suffered a compound fracture of the non-weight bearing bone in my left ankle (I get tib and fib mixed up). On top of this I dislocated the other bone in my ankle ever so slightly along with rupturing a number of ligaments when I was 17. The first orthopedic surgeon I went to never set the dislocation of my ankle and decided to allow the ligaments to repair themselves as they weren't completely torn.

I was in a half cast, basically on the back of my leg and below the foot for a touch over a week, so I was unable to move my ankle and leg and was on crutches.

He said that the bone will heal by itself without the cast and even with me putting a bit of pressure on it.

I underwent open surgery to repair a completely ruptured achilles tendon 17 days ago. After surgery my foot was immobilized in plantar flexion (shank/foot = approx.135 degres). Is it a tenet also in USA that the leg should stay in this position for at least 3-4 weeks?
