Hello I think my 3 week old kitten is suffering from this. Just some questions I have. How long did you keep the tape on? Does it stay on overnight? Did you change the tape frequently in a day?

I'm so so thankful to have found this video. Our 4 kitties are 23 days old today. One of them is just like this and with the help of this video I will do everything as I can to help our little baby. It's so sad that people sometimes get them euthanized. That breaks my heart. But we will get started right away. Thank you again!!

hey so do i tape him up for the night too or just let him rest like that

Thank you so much!!! My foster cat just had a litter of 5 (all boys!) and the littlest guy has swimmers syndrome and I wasn’t sure how to restrict his movement so his feet were below him, but this was his movement isn’t really restricting at all and the feet are where they need to be!

У котенка который не так давно открыл глазки ситуация противоположная, лапки будто изогнуты из внутренней стороны, тоесть они соеденены друг с другом и это выглядит как лягушачьи лапки когда они вытянуты, ели ползает задними....

Tanks a million!!!❤ i just pick up a female cat that i feed her for 8 months,finally brought her home and i didn't know she's was pregnant,monday 5/13/2024 have 4 kits and one have the legs this way,i was looking for solutions in the WEB and tank you for uploading this video,it's very helpful and i don't want to put her to sleep,i will try this,because i did try to correct the problem very gentle and did work,but your video help a lot TKS AGAIN TKS ❤i will post the progress 💞

Can this be done to older kitten I just found out what this was ?

can i start treating my 4 day old kitten with swimmer's syndrome?

I cannot thank you enough for giving our kitten ‘Tiger’ the ability to walk, run, jump - I spotted this when she was 3 weeks old - she kind of looked like a furry frog and was dragging her little legs around - I tried many taping methods and this one was spot on - she is now climbing the sofa, doing reverse moves and fully mobile - you are amazing xxxxx

So u don’t keep tape on 24/7??

Thank you so much. ❤️

I am also a kitten rescue momma, my heart just melted watching these babies!!! Not getting another rescue kitten is SO hard. To know when enough is enough. But to still be drawn in by the absolute adorableness. Impossible 😅😅❤

H9w soon can you tape a kittens legs?

Hello. I have a kitten, one of of four in a litter (mom cats first litter) and the kittens front legs have seem to be naturally "folded" inwards. Kitty can bend them back normal as in how the legs should be, but her front legs are long so she collapses and wants to try and walk with her front paws folded in (kinda at the feet), screams in pain and splays out on all fours and wont move. Is that swimmers syndrome in front legs? All advise appreciated.

My kitten also has this syndrome, but the legs are shaped like the letter "O" and the paws are facing up. Is this also called "Swimmer Syndrome" ? Can my cat recover through therapy?

Здравствуйте, скажите пожалуйста какого возраста котята на видео?

Awesome! There's a new stray cat here that walks a little bow-legged. I wonder if a similar cause.

My family and I just adopted a mama cat and her 3 kittens, they are 3 1/2 weeks old and I noticed that the grey girl kitty, Sylvia, had this Swimmer's Syndrome. Going to start taping her tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing this method and this video. Godsend.

Never kill your pets due to swimmers syndrome. It is curable. Use braces and use splints. My husband used a little metal finger splint and adapted it to the shape of the kitten. Physical therapy and good nutrition too They're doing well now.

What kind of tape did you use?

Thank you for posting this! I’m on day 5 with my 3 week old fosters. This video is very encouraging.

My kitties were like that … do the taping it works… i found that the mom keep them under the couch and didnt have room for walk

I have 3 kittens like this but it's all 4 legs. Would I tape the front legs the same way ? They just crawl on their bellies all the time

Can someone tell me how long the kitten need to put the tape on? 24/7?

I adobe 2month ragdoll kitten but when he's arrived he's leg was like frog when walking 😭

🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛♥️♥️♥️🤗🙌🙌🙌

I did this too and it helps my kitten with Swimmer syndrome, a lot!! You are a life saver! Today is her 6th day (with the support of medical tape) and she can walk like a normal now even without a tape..

Это потология при рождении и она не убирается ,это вам так к сведению

I have a kitten currently who’s just 3 weeks old with this issues. The problem is, it’s not just her back legs. Would I use the same method for the front as well?

Cuuute

I have this issue but viceversa my kitty can walk normally with on of his back but the other one is throwed to the front not to the back as the ones in the video what can I do in that case? :(

Please never ever delete this video. When my mum pointed out one of my 3.5 week kittens was walking differently, and after researching it confirming it was swimmers syndrome I felt so helpless and useless. I watched a few videos but the kittens all were larger and so when I came across your method I was over the bloody moon. We are on day 2 with your method (day 3 with the other included but i didn’t manage to wrap the tape like they said, only did my best) and there is already a massive difference. You are honestly a life saver and have given my little baby kitten a chance to walk ❤ thank you so much kind human!

I can’t thank you enough! I was so worried when I saw one kitten out of the four had his back legs splayed out. I spent hours trying to find a vet to come to our house who knew how to correct this syndrome and couldn’t find one. Another vet on the phone recommended euthanasia and that wasn’t an option. Thankfully I discovered your video and did exactly as you did and after 9 days he was healed. It was a miracle. You saved his life! Bless you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Wth the vet wants to put them down.. they can go to hell.. it can be fixed you did good they are great 👍

Maybe answered way back but again please, did the tape not stick to the fur? Did you wrap something inside the tape to prevent sticking to their little legs?

Wow... My best friend, Nice video... Beautiful place Enjoy watching this video... Have a nice day.

I only have shiny floors so no traction for tinny claws. As a result all kittens my cat brought into this world were swimmers. It corrected without me doing anything as soon as they got strong enough to climb on furniture like textile covered armchairs and beds with loose sheets. At about 6 weeks of age. At about 3 months of age they are usually capable to go play in my garden outside and return home to sleep, eat, etc. whenever they feel like. No swimming in the garden and plenty of traction for little paws :) Before seeing this video I thought swimming is normal for all fresh born kittens and turns into normal movements about the time they start playing with their peers.

Well done, faulks !

Good job. You achieved this in record time👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

Lol dexters kids

It gets me so mad to think that a veterinarian with all their years of schooling can be so cold-hearted and cruel to euthanize ( nice word for kill) a poor defenseless tiny baby kitten. I thought people became veterinarians because they wanted to save animals not to kill them . Why don't all the Vets know about this from their schooling? Maybe you could find a way to send your video to All the vet schools. You are smarter than they are. Something so simple to save all of them that were born this way. Then they go on to lead normal happy lives. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this wonderful video to help other people with kittens with this problem. I am sure it will save many more kittens from being euthanized. May God bless you for your wonderful work that you do.

I noticed that once they got their legs under them (day 7) u stopped bandaging them. Im at the same stage now my cat got his legs under him but the part under his ankle is still a bit splayed out. Should i just leave it to time or should i keep bandaging him?

How young can a kitten be identified as a swimmer ?

😘😘😘😘😘😘😛😛😛😛👍👍👍

I have been watching all kind of videos re kittens in need but I never thought this was the one who touched my soul so much!!! Many thanks for sharing it. Very inspiring!!!
