And now I got a cat with seizures...

So I've been having a problem with one of my cats all week. She's been waking up from a dead sleep hissing and looking disoriented, then she would start licking as if something was stuck in her throat, salivating and then she would involuntarily void her bladder. She would do this over and over and only from sleeping. Never awake. She also lost about 3 pounds.

So, off to the vet we go. I can't be cleaning up pee like this.
He's stumped. Ran blood work anyway.
We / he thinks its some kind of seizure because it only happens when she's sleeping and she's perfectly fine after.

So, he put her on phenylbarbitol and we have an appointment with a friggin' pet neurologist Saturday.

Now, what is REALLY funny is the ER vet. Remember the one who is in when my friend isn't on duty? The one with the girlfriend who has to remind us she's banging the vet? Yeah, well she (the GF) answers the phone and she decides that she's going to give advice and let me know we must get her in there ASAP as she's in organ failure. I should make sure I call before I bring her in. Yeah, OK. I waited till the morning and took her to my regular vet to avoid the double ER fees.

Someone needs to check that woman's mouth before she gets the practice sued.
