    Quick question, just jumping in here without reading cos it could be quite serious. Does she tilt her head to one side? Does she press her head into things like the wall or a corner? are her eyes quivering left to right? If the answer is yes to any of these bring her into the vets NOW. She may have a serious infection similar to meningitus.

    Other then that she may have an inner ear infection causing her to lose balance so i would bring her into the vets as soon as you can.

    I do agree vet is the only one who can tell you whats going on, it could be anything form pollops or citis to a high temperature or head injury, best to leave these things to the vets.

    Lets know how you get on hope it nothing to serous.

    Glad to hear she's ok, I had these tragic images in my head of a little kittie trying to stand up and just wobbling about. They injure themselves so easily :o she must be so happy to be feeling better
