Stroke in cats

My mother's cat has had a stroke this morning. She's 10yo and siamese. They live rurally so there's no Sunday vet and anyway there's not much treatment for a stroke.
But the cat won't rest or settle down, just walking in circles. Is there anything they can do to calm her?

There is treatment for strokes , my cat ha done years ago . It's expensive and brutal and doesn't often work but there is treatment , we rushed him to the vets because he was distressed and they suggested he was pts which we did . Heartbreaking but I couldn't leave him like that , it's cruel that he hasn't seen a vet , how do you know he has had a stroke ? He will be very distressed without painkillers erc. !
