That is very interesting because I too have a 'psycho' cat and she's the one (the kitty in my avatar) who had the seizures. She's very compulsive (she'll chew on anything) and very destructive. She's also a thief. Pens, hair clips, and one time even my phone, go missing and, to this day, I...
I can't advise anything on the oils and supplements, as I don't know anything about them. But I would definitely talk to your vet about possible meds. There are different types of seizure meds for cats. But I would contact the vet, as the seizures seem to be more frequent.
Oh my gosh, I'd forgotten all about that. In my quest to check the house to make sure Ally didn't have access to any toxins or household medications, etc, the Resolution didn't enter my mind. Mostly because it's been probably a couple of years since I used to put it on my cats monthly, but I...
I went through the same thing with my 10-year-old girl. Her 1st seizure was back in December of 2019. Then she had another one a month later, in January. Vet found no obvious cause and, to my knowledge, she hasn't had one since. She loses her bladder during her seizures, so for a good while I...
I could be wrong, but it looks like she may have an eye infection. Hope you can get her an appointment soon, as she possibly needs antibiotics. Hope she gets better soon.
I just wanted to give an update on Ally, for anyone who may be wondering - Ally has been fine and seizure-free (as far as I know) since that night. I say "as far as I know" because if she's had anymore seizures when no one is home, I am not aware of it. However, I know that once a seizure...
No, the shots came after the seizure. She had the seizure late Monday night and got her shots the following Friday. She's never had a reaction to shots before.
My other cat, however, had a bad reaction to his first set of shots when he was a kitten. Made him very sick. So he has to be given a...
I asked the vet what the blood word would show and she said it will show liver and kidney function, as well as the possibility of disease. She said sometimes cats with liver disease have seizures. I guess she would start with the basics first to rule out those possibilities.
My cat did the...
I also wanted to add that I responded to your post about the FARS, but for some reason it's awaiting moderator approval. Is there a reason that sometimes happens?
Video, yes, my vet asked me to get video of a seizure, should it happen again. I don't know how that's going to be possible. When one of my animals is in distress, running to get my phone is the last thing on my mind. But I will try.
Thank you for the information on FARS. Over the last few days...
Yes I did, thank you for asking. They did a basic check of her neurological functions and seeing how her eyes reacted to certain things and situations, plus checking her reflexes and also her front and hind leg functions, etc. Everything seemed normal. They told me they didn't want to start her...
Interesting on the fruit juice. Another thing I wonder is if she found something hiding in a corner somewhere, like perhaps an aspirin or a prescribed drug that someone at some point dropped. My big black brat (as I like to call him, because he's a big, longhair black cat), Alex, couldn't care...
Thank you so much for the link. I definitely need some comfort right now. And, of course, answers, if there are any. I've been doing a lot reading today on the subject and sometimes an exact cause is never found.
My cat, Ally, who is 9 years old, had a seizure about 2:30 this morning. I don't know if that's the first time she's ever had one (maybe she's had them before when no one was home) but I'm telling you, I was terrified. I heard her cry, as she spends many nights in my room. Then about 15-20...
