First of I apologise if this is not the right subreddit.
So two days ago my cat started acting a bit weird. She was being really affectionate and was running around like crazy.
While running she was peeing all around as well and when the running stopped she started meowing for a couple of seconds. Those episodes occurred once every hour or two.
This behavior proceeded throughout the night and the next morning - I also saw her trying to use the litter box a couple of times but without success , so around noon I took her to the nearest vet.
Without any tests the vet said that she probably has cystitis and gave her 2 antibiotic injections and prescribed some pills for the cystitis as well and gave her a flea treatment medication.
After we came back home - an hour after the vet visit another episode occurred and this proceeded to happen throughout the afternoon and the evening. - Forgot to mention that those episodes start with drooling.
This night around 2am while on her episode and rapidly running around the room she suddenly stopped running and started seizuring. - Her limbs started moving uncontrollably and she was breathing heavily.
The seizuring took not longer than a minute or less.
After that 4 out of 5 episodes during the night had the seizure.
Early next morning (Sunday) i brought her to the emergency vet - they did blood tests and said that she has high levels of potassium in her blood and took her in the emergency care for the day and the next night.
They gave her fluids and valium as she did have a seizure there as well.
After one full day at the vet bring on valium and fluids they told me that she is having only minor twitches and they will gradually start lowering the dose.
Today they thought me she have had another seizure.
I literally don't know what to do at this point. Any advice would be highly appreciated.
I apologise for the long and probably not very structured post.
