I took in a cat pulled from a seizure and put his night screaming down to the move just to give him time: the X-ray of his hips showed something that had healed long before I met him
When a newly rescued cat wouldn’t stop screaming at night, his new owner assumed stress from the move. A routine X-ray revealed the real culprit: an old, untreated hip fracture that had healed crooked years before. This discovery challenges how we read pain signals in rescue cats and highlights the hidden injuries many carry from their past.
