Title: Stiff leg.
Post by: Sentimental on February 27, 2011, 02:45:35 AM

Hello everyone ^^
Zanthy seems to be having a problem lifting her right front leg.
The shoulder gets very warm and she has trouble moving it past her first step when she walks.
It seems that it does not cause her pain but rather is a mechanical problem. :(
This may have come about because i was holding her wrong in my arms and i'm worried about her.
For the moment i will continue to feed and play with her keeping her standing still but if you have any advise about what i could do to fix or better analyse the problem please let me know.

regards,
Belinda

Sorry to hear about Zanthy, try manually manipulating the leg back and forth at the shoulder and the knee. (you'll hear a click when you move it) and see if that helps, it could be jammed.

Problem has been resolved. I gave her leg a massage while she was sneeping and now it's all better.
Thankyou for your help :).

I'm glad she is ok and the massage worked. :)
