    My cat goes around in circles
    Hey guys. I speak spanish, so I am sorry if I could not get myself very clear but, I am desperate, and I think you could be a great help.
    My cat is 18 years old, she has been circling around all over my house, she walks into her water and her foor, and can not recognize them.
    Her eyes are also strage, they look really really damaged like she's blind or so. And if I put my finger or anything close to her eyes, she won't blink... she only looks in one way.
    We went to the vet and she tourned out to have an inflammation (they don't know where) and a lot of parasites.
    I am very worried. She is my sister, we are almost the same age.
    I've read a lot about some ear infections ans something call vestibular syndrome,too.

    Please I count on you I hope someone could help. Thank you

    The vet examined your cat, but we can't and really have no clue. Could she have had a stroke, or has her brain been affected somehow?

    Is she eating and drinking and using the litter box at all? Maybe it's time to be merciful and put her to sleep.

    My dog when I was little, went in circles before we had to put her down in her old age. She had had a stroke we think. There are parasite medicines or cleanses, but it may be too late. Hope something can be done.
