    Jerking Cat

    My vet told me that the jerking was not a seizure.  I read the information on seizures and am not convinced that it is a partial seizure. How do you determine what a cat is allergic to?  Jules has allergic asthma, but I don't think it is food because his breathing problems are only at night. ...

    Jerking Cat

    I don't do much of anything for the jerking.  He has had it for at least four years and although it's gotten a little worse, I don' t feel that it  requires monitoring.  He does the jerking every day and I can't really say how often - maybe I observe some sort of jerking five or so times.  I...

    Jerking Cat

    That is how my cat Jules was jerking when it started probably about when he was 10 - he is now 14.5.  Interesting in that he had hyperthyroid as well, but he got radiation treatment and it is gone, but not the jerking. He continues to jerk, head, legs, full body, but no seizures.  His hearing is...

    Jerking Cat

    I have an i Touch with a video.  I tried to get it tonight, but it was so subtle, it didn't show up.  I have to get closer.  These jerking movements last only seconds.  I have found a vet that deals mainly with cats and she is going to do some tests.  We do have a vet school, but far away.  The...

    Jerking Cat

    Thanks for the suggestion about filming the jerking.  When he is at the vets he is so stressed that he doesn't jerk.  So I will try to catch it on camera so I have something to show.

    Jerking Cat

    Thanks for your questions, but I have looked online at epilepsy and my cat does not have those symptoms.  His jerking is just now and then and pretty mild except for once in a while when he has a hard jerk.  Basically no vet has done any testing because they had no idea what to test.  I have...

    Jerking Cat

    My male 13 year old cat has had limb and head jerking for about 4 years and it seem to be getting worse.  It happens mostly when he is relaxed.  Some times his whole body will jerk.  The other day he almost lost his balance when his legs jerked while he was sitting at the top of the stairs.  I...

    No-sorb... has it worked for anyone?

    I just used NoSorb for my cat and he seems not to be bothered by it even though it is black and there is not much on the bottom.  I stay away while he is in the litter box.  I have used it several times.  I also got pH strips so I can check the pH myself.  I just took his urine into the vet to...
