yes, you should take her to a vet immediately.  Any time a pet is suddenly lethargic, and totally unlike herself, you should contact your vet.  It is a sign that something is wrong.  The limping may be something different, or it may also be a part of what is wrong.  Call your vet now, it is better to be safe than sorry!  And I wish your kitten a speedy recovery!

I agree with wigglypups. If this behavior continues you should take her to the vet. Cats are very good at concealing pains, and it is important to be careful. Make sure she eats and drinks too.

Cat Health Problems - Seven Easy Steps to Banish Them

Cat health problems sem to be on the rise. I consider there are several factors which contribute to this, but the most important factor is diet. You are what you eat. Cats are too.

If your cat is alive there’s hope.

Why are Cat Health Problems on the Increase?

Cat health problems seem to be on the rise. Cats seem to be less healthy, with more frequent trips to the vet and often don’t make it past ten years. Has this reached epidemic proportions? Is there anything you can do to prevent it? If cat health problems are so common, surely the cause is known? It is my opinion that the cause of most of our cat health problems is well known, by those who look.

Cat Health Made Easy

Cat health is almost entirely about cat nutrition. The right food! There are many myths ‘out there’ about what is important for the health of your cat, much of it untrue. If you could ask your cat what is the single most important factor to maintaining her good health, I’m sure she would argue cogently in favour of good quality food. Good cat health IS good quality raw food.
