I think my cat has bones growing out of her foot....?

Ok...so yesterday I noticed that my cat had something growing out of her foot. It looks like bones but Im not sure. She doesn't limp or anything on it but when you try to touch it or get a closer look at it she goes crazy! We would've already taken her to the vet...but my mom is really making me mad because it didn't seem serious enough because she wasn't limping to take her in immediatly! She says she will take her whenever she has time *roll eyes*! I really wish I had my license now...but do any of you have any suggestions about what could be wrong and how to deal with it?? And also how to get her to a vet?

O yeah by the way....we had her declawed a couple of years back. Maybe it's claws growing back or something....I just dont know!I think my cat has bones growing out of her foot....?
It would not be claws growing out again when a cat is declawed they rip the claw and all the surrounding tissue that grows new claws. If they did happen to miss anything it should have shown up a few months after the declawing. I would call your vet or get on a bus and bring the cat to the vet by yourself. Don't worry about the cat not allowing you to look at the paw closely cats usually don't like their claws messed with. If the cat doesn't seem to be in pain it is most likely not as serious as you think it is. Keep a close eye on the cat until you get a chance to go to the vet so that pain doesn't develop.
This does not sound good at all. It sounds to me like your cat needs medical attention asap.I think my cat has bones growing out of her foot....?
im not sure but my cat goes crazy if i try and touch him anywhere. he will snap at me if i touch his feet, or if i touch the side of his face in a way he will shake his head angrily. maybe cats are just not very happy animals. i think you should bring your cat to the vet though thats the only way to tell what it is. it cant be bones cuz bones dont just grow out of nowhere like that
ok its entirely possible there is something lodged in your cats paw (e.g peice of plastic), you should get a vet to look at it as soon as possible, do not try and atempt to remove whatever it is yourself cause it will most likely cause more harm than good, but i doubt its a bone growing out of your cats foot.
if the growth is coming from where her claws were, it is possible that the vet that did the declaw did not remove all of the claw and it is growing back. i worked as a vet tech for 4 years and saw this only once. it is rare, but it can happen. it can even take several years before the growth shows. she will be fine until your mom can make an appointment. if she's not limping, don't rush it.
scents you had her declawed a few years ago and she will not let you look at it then it has to be hurting her badly if i were your mom i would have her a the vet as soon as the office opens so it dose not lose its foot or any thing could hap pend! GET HER TO THE VET TODAY IF YOU CAN IF NOT TO DAY AS SOON AS YOU CAN IS BEST IF YOU LOVE HER OR GIVE HER TO SOMEONE WHO WILL LOVE HER!!!!!!
fYour cat should be seen by a vet as soon as possible. There is an old saying "The squeaky wheel gets the oil"; by this I mean, keep hounding your mother without end until she takes this cat - do not let up - make her so miserable with it that she will take the cat just to get you to shut up - it is up to you to be "the squeaky wheel"! Kitty can't speak up for herself - you must be her advocate for care. Next, your cat needs to go to the vet inside a carrier - ideally it should be a plastic carrier with a metal door. Cats can easily escape from cardboard boxes, cardboard carriers or plastic carriers that have plastic doors. However, if you have no carrier, improvise - my best suggestion on that is to take two laundry baskets, attach the two backets together with those plastic cable ties or wire in several places around most of the backet, then insert kitty %26amp; wire up the rest - be sure there are no areas that kitty can push out of. Take cat in that to vet, %26amp; take more cable ties or wire to close him back in for the trip home. Be careful - if he escapes, he'll be in a strange location %26amp; will run %26amp; you may never get him back, so it is imperative to close him up tightly.
