My cat has been having these seizure like episodes lately where she falls over repeatedly and kicks her legs and yowls. Her latest one was sat night and it scared me so bad and lasted so long that I got a friend to drive us to the emergency vets. Lots of tests later showed she has a mass on the right side of her belly directly near her spleen, which is swollen. So she is in pain. No serizures, just pain. I know this because she hides under the bed during these episodes.
Anyway, the first ultra sound they did didn't show exactly what that mass was, so I need to get another one done soon. Yes, it could be a tumor, yes, it could be cancer.
The vet sent us home with painkillers, and since that night at the vets I am pretty sure she hasn't slept, which is odd for my old girl because she slept all the time up until saturday. She paces, and lays in the middle of the living room floor most of the time now with huge alert eyes. Her pupils are huge. She is eating a lot, but not drinking much, I know this because the vet said she was dehydrated. She also hasn't pooped since friday.
So just wondering if anyone has experience with their pet on this pain killer Tramadol? She is so anxious and possibly constipated. I took her off her pain killer tonight and am calling the vet tomorrow.
