How long does a cat have to live with a broken leg?

Pet foot sprains are much the same as humans. I am hoping you took your cat to the vets to be sure the foot isn't a hairline fracture or a full broken bone. If not get to your vets. If you have been to the vets the vet would have told you when to bring the cat back in to be examined and to see how the foot is healing or, the cat may start walking on it's own.

Will a rabbit die if it breaks a leg?

Not necessarily, not if the rabbit is treated by a vet with experience and knowledge in rabbits.Whenever a rabbit is hurt, pain medication is an important part of recovery. A rabbit in pain can rapidly decline in health and die within a couple of days. The cause of death is GI stasis, because a rabbit in pain often chooses to stop eating, which is deadly.For the broken bone to heal, the rabbit might also need a splint or restraint of some kind. Don't try to splint an injured rabbit at home: you can make the injury much worse. Instead, put some cushions (or towels, blankets) in a carrier, gently put the rabbit inside, and go to the vet. If the rabbit feels cold, put a hot water bottle or heating pad under the blankets (but not directly against the bunny).Rabbits need to see special vets because they are very different from cats and dogs, but many vets don't understand that, and this can lead to deadly mistakes.If a rabbit's broken bone heals improperly, it could suffer from pain and/or disability for the rest of it's life, which can easily lead to other health complications. A rabbit with a badly healed broken bone should see a vet for a close examination: the bunny may need special therapy, equipment, pain management, or even amputation.A really bad, messy broken bone may need amputation right away. A rabbit with an amputated leg may need a specially-fitted "wheelchair."See the related questions below for more info and links about rabbit vets and health.

Your hamster has a broken leg so she can't climb or use her wheel she is bored what can you do for her?

If your hamster has a broken leg, it needs treatment from the vet. See the related question.If you have already had the vet treat your hamster, then it is important to keep the hamster quiet while the leg heals. She is probably not bored, but tired, as healing takes a lot of energy, especially early on.You can vary your hamsters food a little, and give it your company: talk to it and pat it gently.
