If I were dragging my leg (even though only a twisted ankle) would certainly attend A & E. Always difficult to tell the difference between a twisted/sprained/broken ankle (and I have had 'em all) and the damage can be exacerbated in the meantime.
Yes, of course, there is a difference between a child and a cat, however, once you take on a pet they are entitled to the same amount of care to avoid suffering, this is why we have such bodies as the R.S.P.C.A.

Spot on Kate.......animals can't tell you if it hurts or where it hurts and as you say, you take on a pet you look after it. If you can't afford the vet bills RSPCA or PDSA will help, but don't let the poor thing suffer.
