cat-stress

[tamaranth]

having a much quieter day today, and was feeling calm and in control until just now when Shiva had a violent seizure (second one ever: first was after traumatic vet experience).
Have phoned vet and am taking her in tomorrow morning for check (not this afternoon in case it causes further stress). She's sitting on my lap, purring like mad but still rather wobbly and unhappy. Also, she is dribbling gluey fluid onto me (ewww).
Sofa for the rest of the afternoon, I think: writing can wait.

She was certainly extremely distressed on the Burgess Hill to Tonbridge trip: I don't think she'd ever travelled more than a few miles in a car, and my car at that point was slow and noisy. (She prefers the Toyota.) The roasting peacock and catatonia (hahaha) was more a case of screeching, followed by extreme silent-screaming and frothing, than actual epilepsy: but not impossible that it's related.

Poor little kitty! It would hurt a lot to lose her now.
