She started having seizures yesterday morning which came from nowhere and a cause hasn't been found, her bloods were totally clear. Yesterday they were brought under control with Diazapam but this morning she had one which lasted for over 2 hours and the Diazapam did nothing, the vet gave her Phenobarbital through IV at 9am which stopped the main seizure but she continued to twitch etc through the day so gave another dose at 4.30pm before she came home, both doses were 18mg, she is 3.5kg. They said she was extremely anxious while there and hadn't eaten or drank anything or slept, they were only sending her home to see if she perked up and settled when more relaxed, but since being home from 6pm she still hasn't eaten or drank anything.
She's just sitting in one spot, occasionally taking a few steps then staying put for hours, I've put water in front of her which she sniffs but refuses and I've put a little on her nose which she isn't licking off either.
Is this normal behaviour after this drug? She's very spaced out, looks confused, is making no noise despite usually being a very vocal cat. I've got to take her back tomorrow for another dose before she moves onto the oral liquid from Monday for 4-6 weeks before we try weaning her off and seeing how she does. The lack of eating isn't bothering me right now but the lack of drinking is, I've heard that increased thirst and hunger are normal but not sure if thats something that happens over the longterm. She drank and ate alot last night after the Diazapam.
She's usually a live wire so this is freaking me out a bit, feel so sorry for her :(
