Well sunday night my husband was playing with Kirra with a cat teaser, probley about 10 mins this time aruond and down she went. This seizure was worse than the one back in september. Septembers seizure she was chewing rapidly and shaking but stayed still. This time she was flailing around, salivating bad(foaming etc, hug puddles of saliva) we had to hold her steady as she was flopping all over the floor(hard wood floors didnt want her to hurt herself) we didnt realise they wont swollow/bite their tongues and so hub was tring to help her(stuck finger in mouth) got bit good, no infection he is ok. She went on like this for 2-3 mins. Aftwards she meows a bit stayed close by, her senses seemed heighted, jumped at EVERYTHING, we had to lock her in her carrier for 30 mins while she calmed down, she was indagering herself. She has been fine since. The vet saw here 2 weeks ago for an infection on her neck i posted about. He had asked me how her seizures were i said we hadnt seen one. He told me that she maybe one of these cats that is born with a small lesion on the brain and certain things can trigger a seizure. He said unless she is having seizures 2times or more in a week that he would leave it up to us to run tests. If its longer than that inbetween there may not be much they can do to control the seizures. Since it has been 1 1/2 months since he last seizure and the same situation, we decided to take away all cat teasers/shoelasses/laserpens. Hubby will still
wrestle" with her like she likes, but she has a playcenter and a excerise center and her numerous mice/balls/ect that she can play with. With those she can control how long to play, where with the cat teaser as long as we tease she plays. Clearly over exserstion is one trigger for her. So per the vet unless she has a seizure back to back in a week, or seems to have something wrong after a seizure, we will just have to control her hyper exposure to minamal.
This last seizure was so bad though, my husband said he was scared she was gonna die, he didnt think she was breathing, her breathes were just fast and shallow. I would say she had the equvalent to a human's grand-mal. *sighs* i wish there was more we could do , i hate taking her teasers away she LOVES them. I had to hide em again, she broke into the closet last night in search of em.
