My kitten hit his head. What should I do if my cat has a concussion?

If Mischief seems completely normal, he is likely fine. This article is about dogs but signs of a concussion in a cat would be about the same: https://www.petcoach.co/article/concussions-in-dogs-what-you-should-know/ If needed, have Mischief examined by the veterinarian and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Keep an eye on her mentation (is she acting normally, responding normally, she doesn't seem "depressed" or "dull"), the way she's walking (is she bumping into walls, does she have a wobbly or drunken appearing gait), and her desire and ability to eat and drink. Also keep an eye out for vomiting. If it gets to be 12-18 hours after the incident and she's showed no symptoms, you should be in the clear. I hope thats helpful! Thanks for asking PetCoach!

I'm so sorry that Noah Khan hit his head! He's in the best place possible with the vet, and they can monitor him and treat him as needed. I would keep him there as long as the vets recommend to keep him, and I'm sure they are doing everything they can for him. Unfortunately all you can do is wait for updates and hope that he will be ok. Hang in there, I know it's so hard and I will be hoping as well he pulls through ok!

Concussions can be tough to diagnose and can be very serious (just like in humans). Here is a link which may help: https://www.petcoach.co/article/concussions-in-dogs-what-you-should-know/ Without knowing the cause for the abnormal behavior, it's difficult to know how to treat him or if home care is even possible (just like humans, sometimes a doctor's care is absolutely needed). At home you want to make sure he is protected from harm such as falling down the stairs. You should make sure he is eating and drinking (you may need to bring him the bowls and hand feed him). There may only be so much you can do and there may be treatment he needs to avoid further complications. To be safe, I recommend to have your pup examined.

Cats have a pretty solid head, i'v seen my cats hit their heads many times while playing, always symptoms free right after. according to the history and lack of any symptoms i honestly don't think there is any reason to worry or to monitor her at this point, you have done more than enough so far :)

He likely has a terrible head ache. You should call your vet and ask him whether he recommends a certain pain medicine. Unfortunately many pain medicines used may be contraindicated in concussion. Since your vet examined your cat he will know which pain medicine to prescribe.

IF kismet is eating,drinking, being active and using the restroom I would just recommend monitoring her closely at home. We do not typically diagnose concussions in veterinary medicine. Typically if a dog hits there head they are fine. My only concern with a chihuahua is that they can still have a open spot on there head. If they hit this region it can cause a seizure. If you feel like Kismet is acting lethargic or having seizure activity I would recommend taking her to an emergency clinic for observation. Other wise just monitor at home
