So our Bebop (foster kitten, 6-7 months, who we think suffered brain lesions associated with a toxoplasmosis infection when she was 2 months old) has gotten a lot better in many ways. Her balance and motor skills have definitely improved.
However, she still gets anxious and circles. A lot. Maybe 7+ sessions a day, anywhere from 1 minute to 10 minutes sessions of circling, not as tight as before but still circles. She also overgrooms to the point where she has sporadic hairloss and some hairballs.
I'm thinking she should visit the vet, but is that enough? Does she need to see a feline behaviorist to be prescribed anxiety meds? Will they insist she see a neurologist first?
She is a foster, not an owned cat, so we can't really overspend on her.
Any experiences to share?
