Re: ♡ Medical advice | Cat health & illnesses
 
hi there! i've got a loner siamese kitty with crossed eyes! i forget the medical term, it's listed in his biography which you can find under weevil's bio when you click on the "char bios' link in my sig!

weevil is only affected cosmetically, but would there be any other plausible conditions that could follow his crossed eyes? i've learnt that they might struggle with depth perception but otherwise can see fine.

Do you have any suggestions on autoimmune diseases?

@laa Hello! Congenital strabismus only rarely results in blindness. It does include some problems in evaluating distances and such, but cats learn to adapt to this condition well with time! No other medical conditions are associated with it.

@WarriorGalaxy there are a very numerous amount of autoimmune diseases. Have you got any ideas about the desired symptoms for your cat? Some common diseases include skin conditions.

I'm not really sure on symptoms but is there any that affect the brain and spinal cord? @Wingnettle

Hello, sorry for the wait!
Autoimmune encephalitis is an autoimmune disease that can fit the description you provided. A hallmark of this type of encephalitis are faciobrachial dystonic seizures (FBDS), a brief episode causing uni- and occasionally bilateral jerking of the arm, face and/or leg. Other common features in the acute phase include frequent and varied focal seizures, amnesia, personality change and behavioural disturbance
Encephalitis in cats is not very common. It is seen more often in older cats, and there are no specific breeds predisposed to this condition.
A wild cat who obtains this disease will not heal on their own.

My cat, Pineswipe, is going to be having a slight limp due to a muscle that won't exactly heal correctly and arthritis in his left hip. What are some words I should use with him walking or sitting to show that he is in pain sometimes?
