Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. Ear infections can affect the balance system which can lead to disorientation and a wobbly walk. Tomorrow for an appointment should be fine as what you are describing is not an emergency. When you see the vet tomorrow Pookie will be taken care of and will receive the most appropriate treatment. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
