Since I am unable to examine Tia, I would have her examined by your veterinarian to ensure this is nothing serious. If she is acting strange, she could have had a seizure or may be about to have seizure. Certain systemic illnesses may also exhibit similar symptoms. I would definitely get her in for a full workup to be on the safe side. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions / concerns you may have. I am also available via consultation.
