worried about Miss Ninny

[pywacket]

so just recently when Miss ninny shakes her head or swats at James for more
petting or plays, she loses her balance. We're taking her to the vet of course,
but I'm wondering if this has happened to any of your kids. Otherwise
she seems fine, eating, playing , beating up the other cats,
bathing...

She had a full physical a year ago and all her tests were fine (with
blood tests too) She'll be 12 in April.

Here's her fabulous picture, menacing the camera

Muffin had something like that...

.. she just had an inner-ear infection and it was messing with the equilbrium... She was 16 when she went to Rainbow Bridge. :(

How are you doing, love? I'm existing.. :/

((hugs))

how are YOU doing? YOu should be getting a little something in the mail soon. HOw was the operation?

Thanks for the info. I'm hoping it's a small inner ear thing (not an inner ear tumour or FiP or anything like I found on the net eeek). It started here in Chi, so maybe something about the central heat doesn't agree with her, it doesn't with me. We have her going to a new vet on Monday, or if it gets worse they said we could bring her in for an emergency visit.

That's exactly how I feel: Mr. Yuk.

The Dr. said he did the exact same thing as in the right leg, but I don't think so.. there is much more bruising and pain then before.. I have bruising all around to the back of my knee like a band.

.. and whatever he did DIDN'T stop my RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome) because it's still bouncing like crazy, and it makes it hurt more! :(

((hugs))
