yes
Picking up a cat by the scruff can cause discomfort or pain for the cat, especially if done incorrectly or if the cat is too heavy. It is not recommended as a regular way to handle a cat.
== == Yes it would hurt that cat since in the cat's tail there is a bone. That bone is also there to help the cat balance, so is the same with the cats whiskers. NEVER pick a cat up by it's tail. Can cause serious injury and breakage from the backbone.
You could just have picked it up in such a way that you hurt the cat, but if you usually do this and it never caused this reaction, then I would take the cat in to your vet and have it checked out.
The scruff of the neck cannot support the weight of an older kitten or adult cat; it will be painful for the cat and can cause injury to the cat's neck and spine. When picking up a cat, always support the back-end with one hand, and under the front legs with the other. This distributes the weight of the cat evenly and allows the cat to be comfortable. BTW-If your cat has a collar on, take it off before you pick it up by its scruff. You might tighten it by accident. If your cat has a small scruff, don't pick it up. If a cat is overweight or has arthritis, don't pick it up. Don't swing it back and forth, and put it down gently. Just saying, otherwise you'll hurt it.
I would not do it, for sure. That loose skin is there on the back of a kitten's neck for the mother cat to use to pick up her kittens. You are not a mother cat, and an adult cat is pretty heavy compared to a tiny ball of fur. It has to hurt.

No, Because if you do they lose a leg. But if you pick up a male they will lose a leg and a claw but the claw will grow back not the legs
