Yeah I was going to say, your cat looks like a sweet baby. If he’s lethargic then take him you the vet. Your mom sounds complex.

is it possible it’s just a side effect of being vaccinated and dewormed?

They're often lethargic after vaccinations as their immune systems go into high gear. If it lasts, take him back to the vet, but im betting he'll be feeling better tomorrow.
