Cat limping after cage rest

Hoping to get some help. My cat fractured her hip, and had X-Rays done and all her hip and bones were in the correct place and it was a small fracture, so the vet advised there was no need to operate and 6 weeks of cage rest would sort that.
6weeks have passed and she has a small limp still, she’s jumping and running with ease but has a tiny limp when walking. Is this normal or should I put her back in the cage?

Awe that poor girl. If she is hopping around on it, she should be ok. The limp may be a permanent thing

@SpaceJesus I know bless her :( I will see how she gets on, as long as she isn’t in pain with the limp but she seems happy

@Fswain Yeah maybe she just needs to work it out. I hope that's all it is. How old is she?

@SpaceJesus I hope so too, never experienced this so not sure what’s normal or not. She’s 2

@Fswain Awe she is still a youngin. Lots and lots of time to work off that injury. I don't blame you tho, I'd lose my mind if something happened to my kitty.
