Is your pet walking with a head tilt? Do they seem uncoordinated and wobbly? They could have vestibular disease. In simple terms, this means balance problems.

The vestibular system exists to help humans and animals with their balance and coordination. It consists of the inner ear and nerves (peripheral vestibular system) and the brain stem (central vestibular system), which connects the rest of the brain and spinal cord. The most common symptoms of vestibular disease in dogs & cats include:

- A constant head tilt
- Unusual position of the eyes(strabismus)
- Rapid, abnormal eye movements (nystagmus)
- A ‘drunken’ or wobbly walk in which your pet walks with a lean and occasionally falls or rolls onto their side
