Does weakness in a cat come from ear hematoma?

Question

It's really weird that she is acting like this. I have looked online on ear hematoma but none of the sypmtoms include low crouching and weak walking. We have to feed her by hand because she won't go to her bowl and we have to place her on the cat litter so that she can do her business. I am really worried about her. Can someone PLEASE help me?

I took her last Wednesday to the hospital where she was diagnosed. The thing is after that day up till now she has been acting like this... It cost 1000+ just for the surgery... And emergency visit is 100+... I want her to get better!!!

Answer 1

If you haven't seen or spoken with a vet, you need to do so soon. I don't know about ear hematoma but if a cat is showing weakness and signs of being sick, then a vet is is order. Good luck!
Can you work out something with the vet? A payment plan maybe? A follow up visit after surgery should be included in the price of the surgery. I really wish I could help more. Hope your kitty gets better.

Answer 2

My cat also has a hematoma in his ear and he does not do any of the things that you have mentioned. How big is the hematoma? My cats is a small one, just looks like a small blood blister and even when I rub his ears he doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all. Sounds like something else is going on, maybe a trip to the vet is in the near future, good luck to you and your kitty

Answer 3

hematoma should not cause weakness. I would take your cat to the vet to rule out something more serious.
