My nearly 5-year-old cat had what the vets are thinking was a focal seizure. This is the second one she has had in three weeks. She was admitted for blood work and was sedated for X-rays and a scan, and all came back fine.
She has been referred and has an appointment with a cat neurologist specialist in two weeks.
Does anyone have knowledge of cats with this diagnosis?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Her first episode was a drunken stagger, then one paw up while trying to steady herself. It lasted 2 minutes, then she was fine but non-vocal for one hour. (I didn't realize this was a seizure at the time.)
The second seizure started with her staring into a corner like she was watching an imaginary spider, in a trance-like state. Then, around twenty minutes later, she fell into the side of the bed, then staggered around the room like she was drunk for around 10 minutes, non-vocal for nearly 1 hour...
Straight to the emergency vets after this one within one hour.
