He was born with a deformed back leg, I have had it before with an Abyssinian when there were too many kittens inside the mama,he was one of 6 and they where big kittens the Abyssinians leg went right in the end just looked funny for about 4 weeks, but Poseidon's didn't. he has been for xrays and stuff and the leg is perfect it has just never come down so he walks on on knee on his hind. they talked about sorting out the ligaments but there is no guarantee it will work and they think it will involve more than one surgery, so my thoughts and my new vets are, that to take the leg off would be kinder.
He will have it off on Friday, its not really causing him any issues other than sometimes he get fluid in the knee which I drain off with as needle, but he is starting to walk lobsided and I am worried his back will be damaged if he is not sorted, so we decided to wait until he was old enough to be castrated and have the 2 done at once.
