Cat Seizures - What Owners Need to Know
By Michael Podgoetsky

Cats suffering from different neurological problems are usually known as cat seizures. This problem is often found in cats and can be caused by several factors. Cat seizures are also known as convulsion and they possess characteristics like loss of consciousness, slimming of the pet's body, unintentional problem of urination and changes in the behavior of the cat. If you observe any of these symptoms, do not forget to visit your nearest veterinary doctor.

Three distinct stages of cat seizure are described below:

Stage 1 - Pre-Ictal Phase: It is the initial phase of the seizure and you will start observing the symptoms which I have already discussed above in your cat. You might feel your pet getting nervous, restless or salivate and such a situation can vary from seconds to few hours.

Stage 2 - Ictal Phase: It is the actual seizure phase. You might notice your cat's muscles getting contract and it can even fall or get paralyzed by shaking. It is possible that your cat may also pass urine or salivate. Such situations may last for few seconds to few minutes. It is surely a pain for the cat owner to see such a pitiful condition of his pet.

Stage 3 - Post-Ictal Phase: It is last phase of seizure and your cat might have the feelings of getting confused and at complete loss. It might feel restless and suffer from brief feelings of blindness. During the cat seizure's phase please avoid to put your finger near or into the mouth of your kitten.

Whenever you observe the seizure in your pet, make a visit to your vet and have a detailed discussion on it. He can take blood tests to cross-check the disease or can provide it with anti-convulsion therapy to get rid of seizures.
