[Dog and Cat Health] Don't panic if your dog or cat suddenly has a seizure!

The cat's body was not acting of its own volition, yet it would sometimes stiffen and sometimes tremble.

This symptom is called "spasm," which occurs when there is a malfunction in the lobes of the brain that control muscle movement.

-

There are many causes of convulsions, such as epilepsy, encephalitis, heart disease, hypoglycemia, ingestion of poison, etc.

When a cat exhibits seizure symptoms, there are usually some warning signs, such as...

1. Making strange moaning sounds and convulsing.

2. Lips tremble incessantly

3. Foaming at the mouth

4. Urinary incontinence

5. Then began several minutes of intense spasms.

Spasms caused by epileptic seizures are frequently seen in cats. There are usually warning signs before a seizure, primarily affecting the head and paws. When a seizure is intense, please tidy up the surrounding area and create a protective barrier with cushions or other items to ensure your pet is not injured. Then, patiently wait. After the seizure, if there is white foam around the mouth or drooling, gently remove it.

Observe these points before going to the veterinarian.

A. Are there any warning signs before a seizure occurs?

B. Is the patient still conscious during a seizure?

C. Are there any other wounds besides the head?

D. Does the breath smell like urine?

E. Is the spasm affecting the whole body, or only a specific part of the body?

F. Do you have diarrhea or vomiting?

 

Once the spasms subside, dim the room lights and wrap your cat in a cotton cloth or towel to create a quiet resting environment. Then, contact your veterinarian immediately.
