Thanks Nanno. I may still have some Banamine from last year, injectable, if I can remember the dosage. He hates those injections so much though, I wonder if it might cause him to "jump' and tweak his leg more, but worth a try. The good news is today he even put a front hoof up on me (something he does when he's chewing his cud and wants to try and get on my lap like when he was a baby), which means he was standing on three legs including the injured one. I figured the same thing about a splint, so I didn't take him to a vet, and if it's just a pulled muscle or something then time will heal it. It's all so strange, my cat also came in with an injured back leg about 6 weeks ago, limping very badly, but it wasn't swelling and he was eating, so I gave it a few days and it started to get better and he's totally back to normal. It comes in threes, right? So I hope we should be fine for a while!
