Hi,
So my kitten (4 months old; all shots/boosters/spayed done by 2 months) suddenly started walking weird tonight. I would describe it as a monkey's gait: She moves her front two legs forward and then brings her back legs up to adjust, instead of walking left-side-then-right-side.
It is also worth noting that the only reason I was inspecting her so closely was because of an intial red flag: She slept ALL day. (I was home for the holiday and thus was around to monitor her activity.) She did not move up from the spot she curled up on in my bed, where I placed her this morning.
When she finally arose some 12 hours later, I inspected 1) her behavior: Normal. 2)Her appetite: Normal. 3) Her usage of the liter box: Normal.
The only thing that was off was how she was walking. She's not shaking, so I don't think it is a fever. Also, she is still social.
What could it be? Does she need medical attention? Is it brain damage? What's wrong with my kitten?!? :/
