    This LOOK similar to what my kitten was going through only much much more severe. It was heartbreaking, she was wailing and she looked so possessed. Shortly after she got a severely bad infection in her left eye. She recovered from both, as long as she fights for her life so will I. I named her Quetzal. I don't even like cats, but I love her to pieces.

    @@mmsoulmm I'm so sorry, evidently KZread decided to not post my reply 🤬 You can get fish antibiotics from Walmart or many pet sites. You can then put them in her water or her wet food. I would also keep her company, because it's pretty scary for cats to go through. After about 2-3 days of antibiotics, if you don't see any improvement I'd take her to the vet. Odds are that it's an inner ear infection, throwing off their equilibrium. It's like being dizzy for us, except times ten, due to the fact that cat's balancing is pretty much super human level. I hope she's doing okay!

    Hi maybe I am a bit late. But what I know if the Cat was ok and suddenly has mobility issues there is a Calcium deficiency my vet explained its common for Cats on a high meat diet I had to get a strictly Calcium Supplement to add in their food as per the Vets advice and they do get back to nornal another option was the injection for Calcium by the vet tho all medication or supplements take a while to kick in also another thing and note this depends on your location the morning Sun and evening Sun helps he adviced I take him out during that time to bask I noticed he was worse at night and got a bit better during the day. I have an amazing vet. He explaned everything well. Hope this helps someone
