A pet-health question in Augusta should not require rearranging an entire day. When your cat has having seizures, local context matters: Cats with seizure in humid subtropical climate homes may hide illness until year-round warmth and high humidity or pollen, mold, and grass allergens peak in spring and fall push them over the edge. Indoor cats still pick up fleas where heartworm, fleas, and intestinal parasites stay active most of the year.

Seizures in cats involve sudden, uncontrolled electrical activity in the brain causing collapse, paddling, drooling, and loss of consciousness. Causes include epilepsy, toxin exposure, low blood sugar, liver disease, brain tumors, and infectious disease. TelaVets licensed veterinarians assess Augusta cats via secure video — $65 flat fee, often same day — and tell you when to stay home vs go in person.
