I've been feeding my 7 year old cat the tins of Purina Gourmet Gold and Pate since last June. I noticed recently that she's twitching and having a few body jolts. I took her to the vets and he did a thorough check up and bloods that came back normal. He doubted it was neurological as she's not...

Thanks everyone. I'll try that tip Rubysmama and see if that works! She goes straight into the carrier at the vets but probably because she knows she's going home! I think I'll invest in a new carrier for her too. The one I have is getting a bit old so no harm in buying a new one. Thanks...
