If you don't go to the vet the bone will heal out of alignment and cause a deformity of the limb wich can be very very painful for the rest of the cats life. The best thing you can do is take him to a vet. If your worried about the cost most vets will let you make payment arrangements with them. If you absolutely can't afford a vet visit you should consider trying to find another good home for the cat that will be able to get the kittens leg looked at and fixed. Good luck

Take your kitten to the vet, or you may end up very sad. A broken leg won't heal itself and you should not try to treat an injury like that based on advice from a website like this. If you want to be a good pet owner, go to the vet with you kitten as soon as possible.

Is money the reason you are not taking the cat to a vet? Some vets will work out payment deals and there are some programs through your local animal shelter that can help pay the bill. Do not make the animal suffer.

If you cannot afford the financial responsibility of owning a kitten, then you SHOULD NOT OWN A CAT!!! Bring it to the local shelter and then it will at least have a CHANCE of getting a good home where they would actually fix a broken leg! Maybe one day, when you have a good job and more responsibility, you can be a good pet owner.

Imagine fixing your own broken leg without the aid of a doctor... Impossible, and extremely painful for the kitten. The best, and safest, thing to do is to take her/him to a vet so they can immobilize her leg and maybe cure any infections that she may have in the wound. for the sake of the kitten, take her to a professional.

How did it break its leg... I suppose you could try bandage it???
I don't agree with any of the nasty comments. I'll help you find out. Just answer these few questions please?
1: Is it unable to move its leg, or just limping?
2: Is the leg bleeding?
3: What was the cause?
4: Is it hanging or look like its out of its socket?
5: Is the cat meowing or in pain?
I won't insult you I just want to help.

Unless you're a doctor and can set a broken leg properly you have to take her to the vet. Imagine the pain she's in.

Take it to the vet. What's wrong with you? You want your kitten to be cripple forever?

Take it to the vet. If you don't, well it is cruel to the animal.
