Four Leg BLOG: Horner's Syndrome & a Cat Story
|
|
This past weekend, I was asked to see a cat with possible vestibular disease. However, the cat also had a bit of Horner’s syndrome and was on antibiotics for an ear infection. So, I did some neuro tests (hopping, placing, flexor withdrawal). They were
all normal. I did the Dix-Hallpike maneuver and it did not set off any nystagmus. He was a bit unbalanced with shaking and turning, but not a typical vestibular disease case. Fortunately, he had been to the vet and was on medications to sort out the ear infection, and my suggestion was to continue that path of course, and do some exercises for balance: - Obstacle courses (under, over, and through
objects)
- Play with a ‘feather stick’ – i.e. chase a toy object to work on balance
- Play red light laser chase in the dark (i.e. to reduce visual balance cues)
Okay, I thought that last one was clever… but
I don’t know how it will work out yet. But the main reason for this blog is a wee overview of Horner’s Syndrome. So, let’s dive into that as a refresher! Continue reading - click below...

Have You Checked it Out?

For over a year, I worked with Physiotec/Wibbi (an online exercise platform) to create a exercise prescription platform for canine rehab practitioners. And this is it! I've put hundreds of exercises together onto this handy platform. You can find the exercises, print off a handout, send them a link to the VIDEOS of the exercises.
There's so much: Massage, owner-friendly joint therapies, exercises, advisement, etc, etc! NOW... be aware that this platform is run by / owned by Physiotec/Wibbi (and they charge separately for it's use)... and the support for the website is via physiotec/wibbi as well. The MAIN GLITCH I am finding now... is that when you e-mail or call tech-support you will NEED to LET THEM KNOW that your
question pertains to FOURLEGEXERCISE! (Otherwise, it's a bit of a schmozzle to get sorted, because they direct you to the Physiotec/Wibbi website vs FourLegExercise website!!!) Check it out and LET ME KNOW (what you think, your experiences, etc... so that I can report back if there are issues!) I hope you find it useful!
Go there... Check it out!!!
