Why does my cat have seizures when in heat? Is spaying the answer?

Question

Gracie has seizures when in heat she hasn't had one in almost two months because she hasnt gone into heat This one lasted 30 seconds longer She went limp with a blank stare for about two minutes after then jumped up and ran to me meowing like she was crazy and kneading really hard Shes been on a different kibble to stop her seizures The reason she hasn't been fixed yet isn't a real excuse but other animals kept getting extremely sick back to back and wed put off getting her fixed This is her 3rd. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 4 years and 10 months old

I am sorry that Gracie has been having these seizures. I would recommend taking her to a vet for blood work to make sure the seizures are not related to underlying disease like liver disease. However seizures are often caused by stress and going into heat can cause stress. Having her spayed will help with her over all health. Food or diet should not play a role or affect her seizures unless she has a liver/or liver shunt issue which is possible but much less likely in cats than other animals. Hope that helps! Hope Gracie improves
