My cat is hissing and limping after vaccines. What should I do?

Question

My cat just went to get her updated feline rabies purevax 1 year as well as her FVRCP 1 a few days ago on wednesday and when we got home she seemed a little sleepy which I was told is normal but she wasn't really acting out of the ordinary until last night I came back home and tried picking her up and she hisses and snarls and growls she won't even let my bf or I even touch her? Idk what's wrong and she seems to be limping or not wanting to put pressure on one or maybe both front paws? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | 1001 years and 9 months old

It sounds as is Eevee is painful. This can occasionally happen from vaccines or she may have done injured herself playing or jumping. I would contact her veterinary clinic where she had her vaccines to see what they recommend or take her in for an exam. Vaccinations can sometimes cause fever which may make cats sore as well. Keep her confined to a small area until you get her seen, try to limit her jumping and running around if she's painful and make sure she is eating, drinking and using the litter box normally.
