My cat had a seizure. Could eating a baby rabbit be the cause?

Poor Bugs! The signs you describe are extremely concerning and can be caused by a severe bacterial or viral infection. E. cuniculi, a fungus, can cause these signs as well. I recommend having Bugs seen by a vet as soon as possible, as he likely requires supportive care and treatment.

I do not think it's related to killing those mice, Epilepsy in cats is not very common either, you will have to monitor her, if it happens again in the next couple weeks, you will need to take her to the vet in order to get it checked (full blood test).

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Seizures can occur due to many reasons that go from a toxicity, metabolic diseases, inflammatory diseases and even tumors. I suspect that the lack of appetite could be somewhat related to the seizures or may be to what is causing the seizures though keep in mind that these could all be separate issues. I highly recommend that you have Brownie evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible for further assessment and treatment. Diagnostics that will be recommended will include bloodwork and advanced imaging such as an MRI. They would also be able to start her on anti-seizure medications to try to avoid the onset of more seizures. Good luck and have a good day! Hoping for a speedy recovery!

It's very likely to be the poison you sprayed in the house, you need to take Thumper to the vet urgently, he will need to be given supportive treatment, mainly fluid therapy in order to flush the toxin from his system.

Poor Frankie! Seizures take a lot out of a pet. Recovery can take minutes to days to fully recover. Because he is so young, I would be worried about what caused the seizure. Possibilities include toxin exposure, infection, or epilepsy. I would recommend taking Frankie to a vet to rule out the above. Good luck and kisses to Frankie!

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Seizures can occur due to many reasons that go from a toxicity, metabolic diseases, inflammatory diseases and even tumors. I highly recommend that you have Blackberry evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Diagnostics that will be recommended will include bloodwork and advanced imaging such as an MRI. They would also be able to start him on anti-seizure medications to try to avoid the onset of more seizures. They could consider compounding the anti-seizure medications so that they can give it to him despite his small size. Good luck and have a good day! Hoping for a speedy recovery!

No, stress does not cause seizures by itself. Seizures can be caused by many conditions such as epilepsy, poisoning, electrolyte imbalances, drug ingestion or infections in the central nervous system. I recommend to have Gaz examined by the veterinarian. She will need some blood tests and potentially a fecal exam. Additional diagnostics may be recommended as well. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. It is possible that he has seizures that are unrelated to the catnip. However, it is also possible that catnip could have an effect on a cat who is already prone to seizures (as an epileptic or has some time of congenital brain defect or injury). While we do not fully understand the effects that catnip has on cats, there has been some recent research that has pinpointed a compound present in catnip called nepetalactone. This component is similar to the opioid molecule (a drug class that includes morphine) and is thought to have a similar effect to that drug group. When a cat ingests this agent, we do see an alternation in behavior and mental status. For most cats this is mild, but in some we do see it progress to stereotypic, repetitive, and abnormal behaviors. Therefore, it is not a big stretch to suspect that this compound's contact with an epileptic brain could lead to the induction of seizures. So, while I don't think catnip would cause

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. When rabbits get sick they usually go downhill very quickly. Intestinal infection ( or dysbiosis) is a common occurrence . This usually causes a sudden loss of appetite and lethargy. Rabbits usually pass away very quickly when this happens. Of course other possibilities exist as well such as a bleeding tumor, or kidney failure. Thank you for using Pet Coach.

It sounds like poor Bella had an abnormal episode. If she is currently acting normal I would not recommen doing anything at this time. However it is possible she had a seizures or even another neurologic even that caused this behavior. If you notice she is not eating,drinking or acting lethargic I would recommend taking her to the vet for a good exam. If she continues this behavior I also would recommend a good exam to dig a little deeper. i hope that helps
