Our kitten has been suffering from some type of neurological disease since she was 4 months in December. She's recovered, only to relapse. I'm not sure if we're delaying the inevitable, however there are a few reasons why we're holding off on euthanizing our Ana. - She cannot walk (except for...

Thank you Helen, and my apologies for revisiting this but I appreciate the quick reply and kind words :)

Hi Helen - Do you have any updates? Our kitten has been going through the same thing over the last 6 months. Suddenly couldn't walk, head tremors, third eyelid showing. Her initial visit to the doctor we were able to get her on steroids and she seemed back to life, but as you mentioned, our...

Ana is going to the Vet today. Originally planned was acupuncture, but this will be a more thorough check-up since the steroids have not helped her regain her ability to walk like in past times. It's been really tough watching our sweet kitty go through these ups and downs. We have the ability...

Thank you all. I'll keep you all updated as we learn more as we go through this! I hate to rely on Prednisone, but it seems to make her much happier and playful.

Hi Eric, I have a kitten with the same symptoms. I'll keep an eye on your post and let us know what you hear from the vet. If you were to throw a ball or toy in front of that cat do you notice their head shakes? I don't want to assume they have the same thing going on, but it'd be nice to hear...

I see this post being a year old... We have had a kitty (about 11 months) who became unable to walk at 4 months. Head tremors, odd gait, and overall wouldn't grow. The steroid has been a miracle in bringing her back to walking, playing, and being her normal self. We've tried weening her off, but...

Thank you all! Ana has been on Doxy and Prednisone for 3 days and has shown some more signs of life. Still no fever, diarrhea, vomitting, or other indicators of illness outside of not being able to walk. She stretches and can use her paws and responsive to touch, but just not the motor skills...

Thank you for sharing your experience Red Top

Hi All, My fiance and I adopted two kittens in August from a reputable cat rescue. All has been well until the last 3 weeks we noticed that Ana (the smaller kitty of the 2) wasn't playing or climbing as nearly as much as she had been. We figured it may have been behavioral with her much bigger...
