Swollen leg

[KittyLover]

Last night I discovered that my cats back leg and foot where swollen. I don't know what is wrong with him. He seems to be eating ok, just has a swollen leg. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with him.

Hi KittyLover,

Did you give the wrong food to your cat? Because if your cat is allergy to certain food, then swelling might occur.

And also, did you check if its paw has any thorns, or bumps or injuries, that could have caused the swelling.

I would strongly advise that you visit the vet as soon as possible, in order to have a peace of mind.

Keep us posted.
