If your dog is forcefully and aggressively sniffing at your cat I would recommend keeping them separated. It will only be a matter of time until the cat decides to lash out at the dog that is bothering her. This could lead to severe injury in both the cat and dog. As for your elderly cat that is having seizures, I would recommend that you take him in to be evaluated by a veterinarian. There are numerous causes of seizures in cats and by doing a physical exam and lab work, your vet may be able to determine the cause of the seizures and prescribe a medication to help them stop. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
