Paizly Taggart Jax Zeplyn
Jax seems to be not making his jumps lately. I've never noticed him do this before.
Last night he went to jump on the back of the chair.....FAIL.
This morning he tried to jump up in the computer chair with me.....FAIL.
And just now he tried to jump on to the bathroom counter.....FAIL.
I do not see him limping or showing any pain (then again, he is a cat!).
Is this something I should worry about, or would this be considered normal?
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

Doesn't sound right to me. Maybe once or twice and I wouldn't think anything of it, but it does seem strange to continue. Maybe it's an equilibrium thing??? I'd watch him for the next few days and see if it continues, and a trip to see doc if it does.

I agree with this. He could have some kind of equilibrium thing going on. I hope he feels better soon.Originally Posted by pomtzu

Could be something in his ears - that affects balance! Have a peek and see if there is any gunk or something.

Thanks for the responses!Since we will be home all weekend (we were supposed to go to Tahoe but Bruce is sick) I'll be able to keep an eye on Jax. I will try to look in his ears and see if I can see anything. Other than that he seems to be acting just fine. Bugging Paizly as usual.
I hope a vet visit isn't needed. I just spent close to $300 on xrays for Zoee's leg. Sigh...But whatever needs to be done will be done.

If these are places he normally can jump onto, then I say a vet visit is in order.
He is young, an ear thingy is my first thought.
My Chestnut lost the ability to jump, almost a year back now. He is age 13, and it is neurological. Had x rays done. Being a good pet mommy, I put stairs and things so he can get to the important places - sunbeams! LOL
