I noticed a couple days ago that she's avoiding using her right paw. She does but lightly. No audible pain. Is this something that can heal or should I be worried. No zoomies but everything else is fine. Just weighed her. No wt loss or gain. She tends to be same weight in her adult life. She's 2.5 yo.

Leo had the same thing happen shortly after we introduced him to Scooter. He jumped going into his cage and I think he just landed awkwardly. He had a pronounced limp for a couple of days, and it gradually lessened. After about a week it was gone completly.
