What do these episodes look like to you?

Thanks for reaching out with your concern! I understand it can be unsettling to see your pet experiencing any kind of episode. While I can’t see what you’re seeing, let’s explore some possibilities.



Your pet might be experiencing anything from mild anxiety to something medical, such as seizures, if they're shaking, twitching, or staring off into space. Brief moments of hyperactivity or "zoomies" could just be normal bursts of energy. However, if your pet seems disoriented, loses balance, or displays unusual behavior, it might indicate an underlying condition like low blood sugar or a neurological issue.



At home, keep a calm environment to help minimize stress and monitor your pet during these episodes. Recording a video can be beneficial for professionals to assess. Ensuring they have access to plenty of water and sustenance is important, especially after energetic episodes.



If your pet's episodes last more than a couple of minutes, occur frequently, or are accompanied by labored breathing, vomiting, or loss of consciousness, these could be signs of more serious problems that require immediate attention from a vet.



Please consider scheduling a video consult with Dial A Vet. A professional can observe your pet more closely and help determine the best course of action. You’re doing a great job by being proactive!
