Baby Dale hurt his leg. *ALL BETTER*

[jenluckenbach]

I am worried about litle Dale. He did not come racing for his canned food tonight. That is when I saw him just laying in a blankie by the heater. When I picked him up, he yelped. His front leg seems hurt. He cries when I try to touch is and he isn't walking on it.

So now the question is............. Is this a normal over-exertion hurt that kittens are prone to? Or is it more serious? He was sivering a bit (which made me totally panic!!) but after watching him further, he seems awake, aware and bright-eyed and his breathing is normal, not labored, so I decided to cage him (to pervent him from running and jumping), and watch him to make sure he doesn't seem in too much distress.

The emergency vet, if needed, is less than 2 minutes drive from here.

PRAY!!!!!!!!! That he only over exerted and did no serious damage. My poor baby, I hate when they hurt, especially when they are so small.
