Chucky Mama Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Cats can get 'luxating patellae' or dislocating kneecaps.I have never heard one actually click though It doesn't always cause discomfort. I would get your vet to give him an MOT to make sure there isn't something you can do to help reduce the chances of lameness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellekatz Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 My Simba had a clicky ankle yeas ago -I pressed for an x ray and it had been fractured and was knitting together wrong. He had to have it rebroken and pinned. Worst case scenario, but I would get your Vet to have a good look at it as Simba was walking around fine, just noisy!
