good morning.
On Friday, my cat had a seizure consistning of face twitching and extreme drooling. after the 30 second episode, she meows loudly for a bit, then is back to normal, although she seems paranoid. This happened again on Saturday at 9am, so we took her to the vet. Vet checked for obvious signs such as ear mites or lumps, but found nothing. Thorough blood test results were "perfect".
Prescribed phenobarbital...epillepsy medication. 15 mg every 24 hours.
Saturday there were 2 more seizures.
Sunday there were 4 seizures.
This morning, Monday, there have been 4 minor seizures (twitching only) and 3 full seizures since 4 am.
Called vet and she upped dosage to 15 mg every 12 hours.
Getting worse and don't know the cause.
Came on very quickly...never had any health issues in 11 years.
Seizures always happen when cat is asleep.
Seizures always involve face twitching, heavy drooling, and sometimes very quick breathing...sniffing through her nose.
Eating and drinking a lot.
Bathroom frequency seems normal.
No other symptoms..
Any ideas???
