My kitten's jaw is clicking. What should I do?

Answer by  marcia (228)

Sometimes a kitten can dislocate their jaw while playing or exploring even in the house. If the kitten is eating and playing well, the jaw is probably slightly dislocated and will be just fine in a few days. If the kitten is not eating or lethargic, you should take it to the vet to get checked out.

The cat's mandibular ramus could be loose which is held together with cartlidge which sometimes tears loose. If your kitten's jaw seems broken, which can be evidenced by him not eating, see a vet. If he is eating and playing well without any problems, don't worry abou it. If it's clicking after two weeks, call a vet.

You should probably take her to the veterinarian. Its possible that her jaw could be dislocated and that would make it difficult for her to eat.
