Yes, I agree with your vet. Supplements often do more harm than good in these situations. If the fracture is a non-union/non-healing the supplement is not going to help. If you could post photos of the x-rays showing the fracture we may be able to help you better.

Any commercial cat food should have the appropriate amount of calcium and calcium:phosphorous ratio to result in remineralization of the bone. This will not correct any limb deformity or fractures but should prevent these problems in the future. Veterinarians often recommend restricting activity to give the bones time to mineralize, but this often happens quickly ( within a month or so).

Hi and thanks for posting on Boop by Petco! The first thing I'd make sure Willow is eating is enough calcium. Be sure Willow is eating a kitten food until she is about 9 months to a year of age as kitten food has more calcium and other minerals in it that is required for healthy bone growth. A great supplement you may want to consider is DHA and EPA. Both are types of omega 3 fatty acid that are excellent for healthy development for multiple organ systems such as the heart, brain, skin, and bone/joint health. I have a product I'd recommend below: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetri-science-laboratories-omega-3-6-9-dog-and-cat-gel-caps# I hope this helps!

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! It really depends on what it is that you are feeling at this moment. I highly recommend that you have Max evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. What needs to be done really depends on what is really going on and what it is that you are able to feel. If there no clinical symptoms, it could even be a normal anatomical variant you are able to palpate. Your veterinarian would be able to tell you more in detail what the plan should be based on the examination. Good luck!
