Hi, well.. I won't start with pleasantries because it is serious... I have a cat and she's usually very energetic.. I've noticed a couple of days that she doesn't eat everything from her plate but today... I was horrified to see how bad she was.. I've never seen a dizzy cat like this before!!! She could barely walk, leave jumping. But she didn't lose her appetite completely.. she was still eager to eat although she couldn't approach plate by herself she didn't manage to eat everything.. I don't know what happened to her.. it hurts to see a cat like this. And there's dog living with her.. I'm afraid for both of them.. Is it somethin dangerous or can I cure it myself? Please help me...

Please get your cat to a VET IMMEDIATELY!!! It is VERY SERIOUS when a cat can not walk and is dizzy. No one on this board is going to give you a diagnosis because these are serious signs that only a vet can diagnose. Your cat could have a spinal injury, a serious ear infection, etc. etc. This is NOT a time for home based remedies.

PLEASE take your cat to a vet! If you are horrified, an internet board is not where you seek answers, it's at a vet's office. Payment plans can usually be arranged if needed.

Thanks.. It seems I'm not just panicking. I'll go to take her right now. Thanks again. Hope my slow reaction won't kill her. See you

Thanks Kass for being the voice of reason here!


Please let us know what the vet finds out, sounds like a neurological consult might also be in order if tests come out inconclusive.
