    Two things came to mind re: wobbling. 1) the shot location and it causing some temporary pain/nerve tingling. 2) the vomiting...maybe she is totally fatiqued by the loss of energy?

    Whatever it is, prayers coming to you 3!
    This is exactly what I was going to post. My RB Puddy had a vomiting spell and she was so weak from it that her legs wobbled and once she even collapsed. Or it could be soreness from the injection. Either way please know that prayers are going up for you both right now. Keep the faythe.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Thanks a lot, it's very appreciated!!

    Well, I don't think the weakness in her legs is caused by fatigue/exhaustion from the vomiting, she doesn't look tired or exhausted to me. And she hasn't thrown up for 12 hours now. But maybe this was really caused by the injection this morning? Whatever it is, I hope it goes away!!

    It might very well be a reaction to the injection there. What a relief that it wasn't a stroke or thrombosis!

    Prayers and healing energies and loving wishes are sent that Luna is soon over this and back to her usual sweet self.

    Kirsten, I'm so sorry to hear about Luna. Whatever is causing this, I hope she'll recover quickly. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

    Hi, my nephew just recently had his young cat to the Vet and something similar happened with her leg after the shots. She wasn't feeling well and had difficulty climbing the stairs. Kitty is fine now, so I hope this is all it is with Luna. Hope she feels better soon.

    Thank you, Kirsten, from Sydney and me. He continues to do better! Yes, I understand completely just how scary and heartbreaking it is when your older but previously healthy and active kitty suddenly seems to have had a possible stroke or other disabling, non-curable ailment. (More {{{{{{HUGS}}}}} and ~~~~~PURRS~~~~~ to you and Luna, and Lily too, from us .)

    And we are so glad to read that Luna is doing better! We continue to hope and pray that this is just a reaction to the shot and she'll be over that shortly. Also that her leg is not injured, just sore from the injection.

    If her leg still appears twisted tomorrow, why don't you call the vet and tell her about it, see what she thinks.

    That's great Luna is feeling better and no more vomiting. I bet they can hurt themselves with fighting the shot. My nephew's cat was extremely stressed and frightened with the Vet. I hope the other leg heals.
