[QUOTE="Cowgirl-Ryuk, post: 603769, member: 9030"] 4 months ago my father found a pair of kittens while working on some plumbing at a local school. The kittens where only days old, didn’t even have their eyes open and they where both half drowned in a pipe full of water. Luckily he got them out and rushed them home. We bottle fed them and both sisters where doing great. But I’ve noticed recently that one of my girls isn’t quite right. She dips her back, walks on the tips of her toes (in the hind legs only) with her legs tucked up underneath her, and sometimes she will just flop over on her side and make a sounded that is crossed between a purr and a meow that remains in her throat. During those times I gently placed my hands on her rear to see if her muscles where convulsing but she is completely still. Her tail gets really stiff and only the end of it will twitch at random intervals. Then she will jump up shake her self and trot away. She’s eating regularly, drinks her water, she gets her crazy bursts of energy where she feels she must run all over the house and jump up on everything but several times a day she will dip her back as I said. We’ve never hand cats before and I’m not sure if I’m making something out of nothing but I’m still concerned. Any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
