Welcome to Gaia! ::

First things first, we rescued a homeless grey tabby cat, which was pregnant, and her 4 kittens right after she had given birth to them. We've had them for about 8 or 9 months now.

Anyway, today, me and my brother were in our rooms, then we both heard a weird growling sound. We both went to the kitchen and saw Sweet-Pea (the Mother cat) aggressively (for lack of a better word) rolling around all over the floor and curling up into a ball. And whenever one of the other cats would walk up to her, she'd bat at them aggressively. It looked like she was having a seizure, but I wouldn't know, since this is the first time I've ever had a pet. (Other than a fish... > > )

Anyway, my brother picked her up and held her until she calmed down, then I gave her some food and water, and she was perfectly normal after that.
This is the first time she's ever done that, so I'm pretty worried. She's never even growled like that before, in the time we've had her.

If anyone's got any idea what she was doing, I'd appreciate it. ^w^"

It does sound as if it could have been a seizure. I have an epileptic dog and I've witnessed a cat have seizures when I worked at the Vet. If she not in distress now I don't think you need to run her to the Emergency Vet, but I would call and make an appointment with your regular vet. When my dog had her first seizure we rushed her in but they told us that once the seizure was over there's not much for them to do, and to see her regular vet to get blood work...We did and the blood work all came back OK, so the doctor said that for the time being we would just wait and see ... sometimes they never even have another seizure ... but if they became more frequent we could give her medicine. She had a few more seizures and we started her on phenobarbital ( I think Valium is the drug of choice for cats) and she hasn't had one since smile
