Shivering eye

[kimlovescats]

Is he blue-eyed by chance? Cat eyes that twitch from side to side, some times have what is called Nystagmus. People can have it as well. It is very common in oriental breeds. However it can also be a sign of different types of vestibular diseases. Do a google search on nystagmus!

Pooky's eyes do that sometimes. He's blue eyed and point marked, not FELV+ though, and I do believe he's ragdoll mix not siamese. Doesn't seem to effect him any though, although he is a klutz, but he's always been a klutz. He gets to zooming around without paying attention. lol Vet has looked him over and said Pooky was healthy and not to worry about him. Dunno if Pooky's 'twitching eyes' is the same as your kitties though, ask your vet and see what he/she says.

I definitely want to get Raven to the vet as soon as I can but I think he's still at the stage where he would go into a total panic. I will use Ace if I have to but I'd rather avoid it. I don't know if it's the kind of thing that a vet could only assess if the cat was fully alert. The eye doesn't seem to bother him at all. It is as wide open as the other and he appears to see well. He's not blue eyed and is a black DSH. I used the word shiver because I am having a very hard time describing what I see. It's a very transitory motion, over by the time you realize there is a motion. My concern is that there is something going on within his eye.
