The problem:
One of our cats is stumbling around like he’s had too many cocktails. It’s like he’s drunk and wobbles around when he walks. Serious balance issues. It started ~1 month ago.
We took him to the vet today and the physical exam didn’t generate much. We are doing blood work and waiting for the results.
Has anyone else had a stumbling cat?
If so, what were the issues and how did you solve them?
Nothing in the cats’ environment has changed. They have lived in the same house with the same occupants for over 4 years.
Food diet has not changed.
Litter and litter box have not changed.
There is no change in food or water consumption.
Body weight has remained consistent. (No weight loss).
Additional info (stats):
Original owner of 2 male cats, bought at the local Humane Society in 1999.
Brothers from the same litter.
Mixed breed. Domestic Short hair.
They are fixed.
Indoor only.
They are ~13 years old.
~12 lbs in weight.
Thanks!
