Head pressing can be a sign of a liver shunt. Her liver is normal in size so you would think it is not a shunt....but, you might want to ask about having bile acid testing done just to be sure. It is an inexpensive, non invasive test ..

This is a great brochure about liver issues:

Hopefully it is really nothing.
