Thank you for your comments. Although our holistic vet uses homeopathy, I do
not believe he is a classically trained homeopath.

I do not have Sulphur 6X liquid, but I do have it in 6X pellets, any
suggestions as to how many tablets to give?

After three days, there should be a clear symptom picture

His coat is very beautiful, quite shiny and thick, I believe in part to
feeding a homecooked diet and nutritional supplements. This little guy has a
lot of spirit! Despite his lack of coordination, he is very friendly with
all cats and all my cats love him. He loves to run and play, even if it is
very uncoordinated. After taming, he has turned into a real cuddle bug,
loving to be loved. I can hold him like a baby and he just purrs and purrs.
Other than the left ear polyp and head tilt and lack of coordination, he
looks quite healthy and is gaining weight nicely. The head tilt and lack of
coordination manifested shortly after he was weaned by his mother early
September, but it took me until October to catch him and take him to the
vet. He has a tendency to fall to the left side. He seems to dislike strong
smelling foods like fish.

I would really appreciate any further comments you may have.
