And she's been pretty active. She even jumped up on my lap.
I'm still going to keep a close eye on her.

And Arthur's bum problem never returned. Of course I still check him on a daily basis. Poor guy!
I have had cats jump down from somewhere (counter usually) in the house and then kind of limp for a day and be fine the next day. Guess they just landed wrong.

Once one of mine, a rather large fellow (R.I.P., Milo), jumped down from the top of the refrigerator and immediately started limping. The vet said it was probably just a sprain - even cats screw up their jumps sometimes and land wrong. He was just fine in a couple of days.

just as we do.Thank you for being such an observant kitty Mom.
