Have you looked in her ears?
Maybe she picked up ear mites from the vet's office.
Yes. Our Junie had ear mites, and she would shake her head a lot. Poor cats
can't scratch inside their ears. The vet put drops in her ears that killed
them and she was fine after that. You cat could have picked them up
anywhere. A vets office, like a hospital, is a great place for cats to pick
up strange diseases and parasites.
