What causes seizures in cats?

Seizures in cats 'A seizure is an involuntary, paroxysmal disturbance of brain function usually manifested as uncontrolled muscular activity and a loss of consciousness.' (Source: Textbook of Small Animal Medicine. Edited by John Dunn, Published by W.B. Saunders 1999). Epilepsy is usually used to describe idiopathic seizures (where there is no known cause); however, in cats most cases, seizures are a secondary complication from conditions such as tumours, infection or poisoning. In order to treat the seizures, the cause must be determined. Seizures in cats are quite rare so your vet may not have even come across them before. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION When a female cat is lactating and feeding several kittens she may be unable to ingest and convert calcium at an adequate rate. If the cat has a calcium deficiency, it can cause seizure like symptoms (jerking shaking movement, eyes unfocused, foaming at the mouth). A vet can correct the problem by injecting the cat. DO NOT feed the cat regular cows milk as a supplement. This will only create additional problems. Sometimes over feeding can cause a cat to have seizers or if they have a heart desease or any liver damage. ANSWER A female cat may have a seizure while nursing her young. This is primarily caused by a calcium deficiency and can be corrected by a shot from the vet. Our vet admonished us NOT to give the cat regular cow's milk.
