Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. If you think rilo had a seizure and is exhibiting these symptoms, I would recommend having him looked at by a veterinarian. Further testing needs to be done such as blood testing to rule out causes such as infection or systemic disease. The sooner you get him seen the better. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I am also available via consultation if needed.
