My 18 year old cat has probably had a fit - rang 24 hour vet and that's what they think. It was like his front legs stopped working and he lay on his side looking very unwell, but after a minute could walk again and after 40 minutes seemed normal. The vet (over the phone) said it sounds like a fit, probably caused by a tumour, and he might have weeks or months. In reading another thread a poster mentioned liver infection causing a cat fits and retching - he did kind of retch for a bit this morning, like he had a fur ball but didn't cough one up. I am very reluctant to take him to the vet as it distresses him so much, and if these are potentially his last weeks I don't want that. But then if it could be an infection maybe I should? If any one can advise I'd be grateful, I know he's old and will be going one day soon but I really want to do the best for him now and not cause him distress
