My Cat Keeps Shaking His Head..
15 Answers
Hes not scratching his ears or anything.. It doesnt seem to bother him.. He recently had an antibiotic injection, could it be something to do with that? Hes eating fine, only has wet food but hes happy to much biscuit treats so i doubt its his teeth.. Ive checked his ears which he lets me do easily.. Nothing looks sore or anything, cant see wax or any other substances in his ears..
Could it be an allergy to the antibiotic jab? His infection looks to be fine now!
And if its an ear infection, will the original antibiotic jab cover that too? As i cant keep affording the £70 it cost me last time for the jab.. I just wanna make sure my baby is okay

Head shaking usually means the beginning of ear irritation of some sort, just because he isnt scratching it could deep in the ear canal perhaps. Eat mites are a common problem. Make sure he is up to date with flea treatment and get him checked over by the vet again.

Where was the original infection? DIfferent antibiotics work on different things.
Have you taken out insurance? Much better to spread the cost and know your little one will be looked after regardless of what you can afford at the time.
Could be something ear related - maybe something you can't see, even something little in his ears could irritate them though if it was very bad he would be likely to be trying to scratch and such.
Is his hearing ok?

cat is NOT fine if he has ear mites and needs treatment....back to the vet I would suggest. yes insurance is an excellent idea if you don't have a ton of disposable income lying around, either that or set up a savings account for vet bills and pay into it regularly. If you do this though you have to hope that a balance has built up before you need to pay a honker of a bill.
