Last week, I published photos of Shania, rescued and adopted kitten of Erica, from Penang.

A few days later, Erica wrote again: I'm feeling very sad & worry for Shania. Last Friday I brought her to the vet supposely for her first vaccination.
Somehow 2 days before Friday, something is just not right with her, she's seems like loosing control of her actions. I don't know what had really cause it, maybe is the rough playing from Bluesky had hurt her or other reason because when the first day I took her back, her head vibrate once in a while but is not this serious. The vet checked her blood count is ok, I asked if she needs scan but there is no MRI machine in Penang for pets. The vet said observe her for 1 week by giving her Methycobal for nerves & Felovite II with Taurine. Its hurt to see when she's eating, her head shaking & knocking on the bowl, sometimes she stumbled & fall. Tomorrow I will bring her back to the vet to check on her ear & everything else that are need to be done.
By the way, I will attach videos to you. If possible may you show it to your vet to get some opinions for Shania? I just want her to recover, I cry when I see her suffering. I know how she's feeling but she just couldn't say it out. Everyday I keep telling her to be strong & pray God heal her.
Hoping to hear from you again. Sweet dream......
B. Regards, Erica
I thought it sounded like ataxia, so based on what I know, Neurobion is recommended. But I'd still show the videos to my vet to seek an opinion, if that's possible.
And last night, Erica wrote again: Hi KY, This afternoon went to see the senior vet, he said Methycobal & Neurobion have the same effect. Today he gave Shania 1 more medicine for her dizziness. All we can do now is waiting & praying for her. Just now she stumbled & her head fall on her water bowl, all her movement really break my heart. She always asking me to carry her & she will fall to sleep in my arms. I'am so glad I'd adopted her, if I have to carry her for the rest of her life, I will do that. Everytime when I see her struggling to get up, my eyes filled with tears. Erica

Shall we all pray for Shania's recovery?
