I have a 18 yr.old male cat. lost his litter mate in August. He's becoming insecure and needing. following me around lying on me at night. Vet check up show's he's healthy. Will this behavior continue due to his age, or continue & worsen? He also has started having seizures. The vet did a a complete work up & couldn't find anything wrong. That I know of 3 seizures over a months time. blood work normal.

With seizures starting at that age an a change in behavior ibwiukd bravery concerned there is a disease affecting the brain that is causing the problems. If that is the case you are unlikely to notice any improvement and likely see things get worse and the seizures progress. There is medication you can try to stop the seizures.
