Welcome to TCS! :wave3: I'm sorry your cat was diagnosed with neurological issues by the vet. Could you give us a bit more information, e.g. how old is your cat, is this the first time you noticed this particular health problem, does he have any other symptoms, what did your vet recommend for treatment and/or medication?

My cat is a male 10 yrs old, he had this problem 2 weeks ago we gave him medication cortisone and climadycin but he relapse bc he didnt give him the full time of medication prescribed. The vet only told me it was a neurological problem and if i wanted to know more id have to do a MRI

Sorry for not seeing your reply last night. We are not vets and cannot give medical advice, however, the reason I asked about your cat's age was to know if he's a senior. Since he's 10 years old he would be considered a senior cat. Did the vet do complete bloodwork? Here's an Article about health concerns in aging cats that might be helpful: Health Concerns In Aging Cats – TheCatSite Articles

Before consenting to an MRI you may want to consider getting a second opinion from a different vet. It's possible some of his problems are age related. If there is a veterinary internal medical specialist or neurology specialist in your area you may want to contact them. Please keep us posted on your cat's progress, we're always here for support. :alright:
