Hi,
My sweet 15 year old kitty Louie has now had four seizures within the past 9 days. I have taken him to the vet and bloodwork is great. He had a convenia shot back in Dec 2017 and has been twitching randomly since. My vet no longer administers this shot due to the horrible complications. They are likely caused from the damage this shot did to his neurological system.
The vet has give me liquid gabapentin to give him daily. I want to see if anyone else has given their cat this med and if there are any side effects and if it actually helped. I know there are other drugs like phenobarbital that we may consider for later but just looking for any input or advice. I'm not familiar with seizures at all... Just in the beginning stages of my research.
Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
