Question:

Why have both my cats had seizures recently?

Both my adult male cats (one aged 18, the other aged 16) have had a seizure in the past fortnight. Neither of them has experienced them before. In both cases they were completely 'out of it', their pupils were dilated and they convulsed for about a minute. Afterwards they seemed fine. We just kept them quiet and calm until they recovered.Our female cat who is much younger has not had the problem. Could this be pure coincidence because of the age of the two 'boys', or could it be a symptom of poisoning or an allergic reaction to something that we have brought into the house?

Answer:

money, documents, cellphone, water, car
Girl, cell phone, knife, lighter, tent
blanket, water can, matches, a big knife, and a carton of smokes
A couple of general types: Chemical/Gas Detecting: These detect various chemicals and gasses that are hazaradous and can be assosiated with fire. My smoke detectors do this. If I burn something in the oven, and so much as open it, it only takes 5 seconds for the smoke detector in the other room to go beserk, even though there is no smoke. Mirrored These have a simple beam of light that shines on a mirror. If the beam is in tact, the alarm stays off. If the beam is broken somehow by condensation, smoke, steam, etc, it will trigger the alarm. Many modern smoke detectors incorporate BOTH forms of detection, just to be be thorough.
water, rifle, ammunition, fire starter, space blanket.
