Cat making a Chewing Like Movement all the time
Hello,
After spending almost a grand, there seems to be not one Vet in Canada that would diagnose this problem with our cat. He moves his head from left to right frequently with a chewing motion. I know it is hard to explain but I'll try ... Imagine a human vigourously chewing gum and at the same time nodding his head. We thought initially it was hairball but that is not the case. It has been going for a month now and his eating has almost stopped even though he takes a few jabs of his food here and there and generally seems to be in a poor health. Had anyone had or heard of this problem with cats. Thanks in advance. |

Have you tried a veterinarian dentist? ________ See my cats: http://community.webshots.com/album/56955940rWhxAe Raw Diet Info: http://www.holisticat.com/drjletter.html http://www.geocities.com/rawfeeders/ForCatsOnly.html Declawing Info: http://www.wholecat.com/articles/claws.htm |

Had anyone had or heard of this problem with cats. Thanks in advance. As the others said, it could be an inner ear issue or dental problem. I do squirrel rescue and I sometimes get in squirrels with head injuries. They nod their head, sometimes chew. Generally it goes away in a couple of weeks if it was not a major head injury. I had one who did it forever. He couldn't eat normally. I had to feed him with a syringe. Hopefully it's just a dental issue. |
