Are severe symptoms in a Manx cat from a brain bleed normal?

Question

Can you tell me if a young, relatively healthy cat (around a year old) with Manx syndrome that supposedly has a "blood vessel burst" would cause the animal to be completely blind, have no ability to walk anymore, and is unable to close his jaws? Pet's info: Cat | Manx | Male | 7 lbs

I'd have to say that this seems pretty unusual. Certainly we frequently see Manx cats with issues related to fecal and urinary incontinence due to the abnormalities in their region. but I've never seen it cause the types of changes you are describing. It sounds like Boris needs to be referred to a veterinary neurologist for a thorough evaluation; something isn't adding up.
