Cat paralysed for awhile

by Karen
(Peterborough, ON, Canada)

a few nights ago my 5 year old female cat had a episode where her back end seemed to be paralyzed for a few minutes and she almost tipped over. She is having problems breathing, not eating a lot and chokes and sometimes vomits. What can it be?

Answer by KAte
Karen please do not delay, please take your cat to a vet as soon as possible. the symptoms you describe sounds like a fit but what it was caused by is impossible to say without being seen and examined. Only a vet will be able to help your cat and the sooner you can take her the better the outcome.

best wishes Kate
