Update on my cat that i thought was heaving a seizure

Hello! I'm glad you reached out about your cat's recent health concerns. It can be really alarming to see your furry friend in distress. While there could be several reasons for what you observed, let’s break down some possibilities together.



It's possible your cat experienced a seizure, which can be caused by various factors like epilepsy, toxins, infection, or even low blood sugar. However, there are other conditions that might mimic seizures, such as vestibular disease, syncope (fainting), or certain types of heart problems.



At home, try to keep a journal documenting any unusual behaviors, including the duration and frequency of these episodes. This will be incredibly helpful for any vet you consult with in assessing the situation.



Keep an eye out for signs that warrant immediate attention, like repeated episodes, signs of poisoning (such as drooling or vomiting), difficulty breathing, or extreme lethargy following the event.



Meanwhile, ensure your cat has a safe environment free of sharp edges or hard surfaces, especially if another episode occurs.



For a more accurate evaluation tailored to your cat’s needs, I’d recommend scheduling a video consultation with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. They can guide you through next steps and help ensure your kitty stays healthy and happy.
