Expert Answer

A cat’s bone crack cannot heal by itself. If this happens, the cat should be taken to a veterinary hospital promptly, and the healing time depends on the severity of the crack and the cat’s physical condition.

If the crack is mild and the cat is healthy, recovery generally takes about one month with oral calcium supplements. More serious cracks may need up to three months to heal, and during recovery the owner should prevent the cat from vigorous movement.
