I had a cat named Biscuit that died from a stroke at 15 years old. I miss her a lot. I will see her again one day.
Thank you for saving this cats life 😻🙏🏼
maria ocegueda Thanks for your concern. 😺
My cat died in 2013 it was very hard to see my cat now she in better place up in heaven
I have a cat with idiopathic epilepsy for 12 years, and another that possibly had a stroke. Thank you for this video it is very helpful,
My cat died due to stroke back in 2013 she was 14 years old I had bound with my little girl she is my daughter she was very special in my life Impact in my life in positive way . My great grandmother and my cat both died from a stroke I love my cat so much I couldn't let my cat suffer it was hard to put her down I didn't want her to suffer but my cat is better place with god
Thank you for sharing.
How was she put down?
Thank you for posting this video now we kind of know what my mom's cat has
Thank you for sharing this. I found out long ago that animals can have seizures and epilepsy. I never knew that they can have strokes too.
Thank you for making this video to help others. Being a vet is so hard, especially right now.
my neighbor's cat just had a stroke and was crying in pain, paralyzed and died.
Thank you so much Dr 🙏
Thank you for posting this video. It's helpful to understand more about neurology in cats.
Melanie Beham Glad it’s valuable to you.
I am glad these folks had the money for the MRI.... .
There is also health insurance for pets. It's possible.
I cant do MRI for my cat cause it more than 3k😢
@@sammelia1 Don't feel bad Sam, you cannot pay what you don't have. I had a cat with a likely brain tumor and the vet wanted me to put him through an MRI (2-4K around here) to see if he had a tumor and do surgery if he did (10K plus). I didn't have that kind of money, nor would I spend that much money on a cat, I love them, but I am not willing to go into debt for a pet. 3K and under is all I will pay for anything to be fixed. Anyway, he lived another 3 years on palliative steroids and died at the age of 13. Don't feel guilty about not being able to afford some of the astronomical expenses of current pet ownership!
@@sammelia1 I'm in Canada and the vet said the same. Cost for MRI starting at 3k.
My large cat was picked up by the scruff of the neck without having his body supported. Within days had urinary issues and started missing jump. B/c he then kept deteriorating over a 8wk period the vets seem to not believe that it's connected to a trauma. You'd think they'd want to know if scruffing is unsafe in overweight older cats. I hope your cat is doing better and you got answers.
My cat caught stroke the other day, I'm trying to still try feed him, I can't take him to the vet, we can't afford it. I'm glad other pets gets saved from these situations. Im not sure if my cat will survive it😔
anne mendoza How old is your cat? What symptoms is he showing?
Just 3 years old
He came home the other night and he was walking like a drunk cat, he kept stumbling down, we laid him on a see through basket,we gave him a little pillow, because he can't carry his head, it's tilting upwards or sideways
I live on the Philippines, it is very hot here, coz it's in the middle of summer. I dont know why he is sick, my grandmother just said he might have caught heat stroke coz he's behaving the way my uncle with stroke did
Hi, I'm also from the Philippines. How was your cat po? My 6 month old cat is experiencing the same thing, I believe. Ano po yung ginawa niyo for the treatment? I also can't afford bringing her to vet but I also can't help myself from worrying. Salamat po!
great educational videos, help me with some diagnosis in my small practice. I am not doing MRI, and neural surgery, but good neurological exam which I saw on your videos is good tool...... ;)
Oliver Stevanovic Thanks. That means so much to me.
Amazing degree a true genius, I would imagine the next field would be crispr cas9 ans computational neuroscience
did Lenin recover? the symptoms are close to my 15 year old boy that I just lost. I wish I had a vet who cared like you. they were ready to put him down before we even did blood work. Echo had what seemed to be a stroke at home, and couldn't walk straight after, but it was only his front right leg that would falter. He had hypertension, HBP, hypothyroid.. but I feel like we could have medicated him and watched him.. and had at least a few more days together.
Do you have any suggestions on how helpful it is to use plavix on a cat with cerebellar stroke and no underlying issues found (other than FIV/Felv)? Also is there anything I can do to help him rehab?
My cat sadly passed away after I brought him in with signs of a stroke. He had left-sided body weakness and couldn’t stand and eat. He had an MRI which showed an ischemic stroke and suspected meningioma. However he acquired pneumonia and deteriorated after the procedure. So devastated 😢

My kitten was bitten by another cat. The fang punctured the skin and went into the vein, there was a lot of blood loss. She is doing better now and is getting vitamins and antibiotics. But she cannot walk properly and is either losing balance or her legs are giving out. Idk what’s wrong. I took her to the vet but they just cleaned the area around the bite and gave her the shots. Where I live we don’t have veterinary neurologists and I don’t know what I can do to help my kitty. What should I do?
I went out for couple hours last night, came back and found my cat laying still on bathroom rug, he stayed still as I approached. Didn’t want to move. Then he did get up and walked away, his body was arched and looked like he was kind of limping struggling to walk. Thought maybe he fell while I was gone? Today he’s doing better and walking more normal, I’m calling the vet tomorrow. Could he have had a stroke? He’s 16 years old.

B/c he then kept deteriorating over a 8wk period the vets seem to not believe that it's connected to a trauma. You'd think they'd want to know if scruffing is unsafe in overweight older cats. All his bloodwork (but the one that's suggestive for parasite) were normal. Vet thought blindness at first as he stopped jumping up. Staying low and near ppl. After giving him the parasite med he deteriorated or had a reaction Vet put him on steroid 4wks ago and he's better but still neurological compromise. Relapses if we try to wean him off meds. Without a MRI vet can't say. The cost is over over $3k so unlikely will be doing it.
make sure your pets get soft water in their diet, look it up!
Hi, I suspected my cat had a stroke and left side and back legs went limp, I took him to the er and I said I suspect stroke but they only did blood work and x rays, why wouldn't they suggest mRi? He was given fluids and sent home, I am supposed to follow up with his primary. Would you know what a treatment plan would look like, he also has beginners hyperthyroidism. Like would that mean more medicine for him? Hyperthyroidism plus other meds,thank you
Couldn't it also be an inner ear infection??
How treat cat's with stroke? Pleasee howw, please help me. My family can't afford to take her to the vet, she is 7 yrs old😭
I’m so very sorry for you. Our 10 yo cat went through a procedure with anesthesia and lost her sight with a as stroke. We just brought her home and are devastated watching her. I’m looking on here for some guidance in how to deal with this to make her life better. It’s so difficult 😢
How do you think you are going freaking treat stroke if you were to have it? By staying at home and trying home remedies?? 😡
Take her and find a way later to pay for it. They have programs. You can’t treat that at home. Take her and figure out the money later. You can always make money.
@@SKJ1616They have programs? Who? Where?
In my experience, most Doctors and Vets want payment in full before they will begin any treatments. The days of human compassion began eroding the day prayer was cancelled in schools. 🤦🏻♀️ We must be living on two different planets.
@@SKJ1616They have programs? Who? Where?

My 15 year old cat had a stroke and was partially paralyzed on the left side. Took her to the vet within 3 hours and he said she wouldn't survive and she died within few hours with a heavy coughing.
Sorry to hear. Coughing isn’t typical of most strokes. Sometimes we see stroke secondary to heart disease or cancer in the body (lungs). Take care.
@@SEVNeurology Thank u for ur reply.
@@SEVNeurology please help my cat can’t walk but she can move her tail, limbs, and head. she’s 16, and she tries to get up but kinda rolls around. it just happened please i can’t lose her
@@jpe.8807 Where are you located? Is there a veterinary neurologist nearby? That is your best chance of knowing what is going on. Some causes can get better with medications or time, others are more worrisome. That’s where examination and tests come in to find the cause so you can know how to make her better.
Can you make more videos with feline cases. It is very hard To find in&o with cats.
100 percent. It’s disheartening to not see many cat videos and it seems like many vets (and specialists) are unsure of many cat tremors and involuntary movements. I just started this video and I know it’s a different topic, but I’m really sad to not find many answers or even just videos to help either give me some relief or educate me to in my cats health.
Thanks for the video, woke up this morning and my cat is just like Lenin. He's 23, so very old. Trying to get him some hwlp.
When I woke up this morning my cat had a stroke. She was lethargic and cranky, and she walked funny. When she went to get a drink of water she couldn't stand up. So my sister took her to the vet, and they put the cat down
@@kenrutherford1109 sorry to hear. Yeah, my boy was put to sleep 2 days after posting that.
@@Cyahlaytar I'd like to point out that you misspelled "help." I'm just sayin'
PLEASE HELP...... I am very desperate. Shadow has been with me since he was born. 😔😢
What happened?? Is he okay??
My cat stopped eating, he can’t gain balance, and the whites of his eyes are going over his eyes from the corners. He’s also breathing heavily - I can’t afford the vet at the moment but I’m going today to see what they say .
please tell , what happened, what was the diagnosis, my cat is also breathing heavily and can't balance himself. i am helpless here :(
My cat just got stroke, i brought her to vet but she just said that she has a neurological problem, without giving me prescription,in my country, the vet isnt complete unlike in US, it isnt normal to have mri to cat so i take care of my cat with limited sources, she doesnt like to eat but i force her to eat and drink and she swallowed it. So do you have any advice to cure my cat from stroke ?

Ciao Axl!!!!
My Cat Shadow came up with this yesterday. My Family and I went out and our way back we were feeding our doggies and my Mommy looked on the side and Shadow was laying on the grass meowing. Shadow tries to stand up and I noticed one of his foot was like different I don't know how to explain it just not like the other foot. I hurried and fead the doggies. I went up to Shadow and his head was tilted and his eyes moving fast and from one side to the other. One of Shadow's eye all of a sudden moved liked that and I wonder what had happened to him, he wanders around and I want to keep him in his kennel but then on the other hand I can't keep him there. Yesterday that is the way we found him and I offered him milk and food but he didn't want to eat. I gave him some Tuna today and he did eat. Shadow loves Tuna and I knew if he rejected it the Tuna something is worse to worser. Please help me and give me advice. I can't go to the vet because I cannot afford it. God bless everyone. 😇🙏
You shouldn't have a cat if you can't afford to take to the vet. That's sad. How's your sweet cat now? How old?
Please don’t give your cat milk. It’s not good for their digestive tract. There are special cat milk products and perhaps that’s what you have for him. How is he doing now? 🤝
My kitten of 3 months old is also going through the same problem as Lennin, the doc here have kept her on ivf and have given us few medications and it’s been three days but there’s no recovery please suggest me what to do next to help her recover quickly!
Also, please pray for her too!!
Hello Dolly, we know how difficult it is to see your pet experiencing neurological symptoms. Unfortunately, in order to give clinical advice, our Neurologist requires that pets be seen for a thorough workup. At that time, treatment options and recovery could be discussed. We are here for you if you need us. sevneurology.com
my cat was healthy and he got a stroke just randomly and died
eqine dreamer Sorry to hear.
Me too
My cat had a stroke I believe. He was laying on his back having a seizure it looked like with his feet in the air. He now appears to have lost his sight. He gets up and walks in circles. Sometimes moaning really loud. He has settled down a bit. He walks in circles over and over bumping into things and eventually lays down. He was trying to hide behind the furniture. He has drank some water and eaten a little of his food. I have an appointment to have him checked out. My friend said I should have him put to sleep. I want to do everything possible before making that decision. He is 15 years old as well. Do you think there is hope for him? Will his eyesight return?
My 18 year old cat just started having seizures, he is blind, but can still see shadows and some light, but after his seizures, he goes completely blind. It returns within a few hours. He also moans before he goes into convulsions and walks very oddly afterwards, he still doesn't have the strength back in his legs. With his age, and underlying health conditions, we are focusing on palliative care and keeping him comfortable rather than putting him through a lot of stressful diagnostics. But he possibly has cancer that has spread to his brain and renal failure, both of which can progress to seizures. Today at the vet we found out his blood pressure is high and he gets spikes of elevated blood sugar, so we started meds for that. I can say from having a blind cat, that it does not affect them too badly, their other senses are stronger than ours. My cat also uses his whiskers to guide him around furniture and walls. With elderly kitties, I weigh their comfort and what I am willing to put them through, and also if they seem to have quality of life. I know my boy is still happy between his seizures, he plays on his turbo scratcher and has actually put on weight because he loves his food. Other people (even a vet at the cat ER) have hinted to putting him down, but I know he still has some life left in him, and he has always been such a survivor. You know your kitty best and will know when it's time.
@@jessicah3450 Amen. 😇🙏
How is your cat doing cos tec?
@@GG-wc3nx Sorry to say, after taking him to the vet, they found a large mass in his chest. His brother had one too. The vet said there is nothing we could have done to prevent it. It was hereditary. He was in so much pain. Had to put him to sleep. I was holding him when he passed. Really rough stuff. I'll see them both again one day. Thank you for asking about him.
@@costech1615 So sorry for your loss, and the courage you had to find to help them. Angel cats await us all, I truly believe that. 🙏
My cat is 2years old last 15 days she cried because of fungus infection so I didn't understand what to do then I gave her neomec tab ...she take dose 3times (3tabs)but now she is paralysis doctor said that tabs overdose made her paralyzed now she can't walk and just looks constant .....can you please tell me that will she feeling well?plz help me
She should be evaluated by a neurologist if possible. A physical examination is the important first step in determining why a pet can't walk.
My cat had a stroke. And can't get up to. Poop. So she just does it where she lies.. She gets in such a mess. She has a pad to lie on. Is there any other way I can deal with this. I have to shower her bottom half, I struggle on my own with it all. Please advise. Thank you.
I’m so very sorry for you. Our 10 yo cat went through a procedure with anesthesia and lost her sight with a as stroke. We just brought her home and are devastated watching her. I’m looking on here for some guidance in how to deal with this to make her life better. It’s so difficult 😢
What state are you working in? Very good vet!
Thanks. We have locations in South Florida (Jupiter, Boynton Beach, Miami) and are opening in Virginia Beach, VA in August 2022.
i have one today i hope someone can recommend me like home remedy what am i supposed to do please im begging can someone????

If your cat is able to eat try adding a gram of
L- taurine.
My friend is using the box after an hour after his setback. It took him about 30 minutes to be able to eat after the setback. I was a thinking crybaby. 😅
I believe that he is running out of time. 😢
I believe many pet owners (myself included) can’t afford the bills for tests like an anesthesia and mri. I can’t afford it for myself. And when the scan confirms the cat had a stroke then what? My cat is 18 yrs old with hyperthyroidism and I think might have had a mini stroke. Sure I can run tests- but really there’s not much I can do This is just the reality of pets getting older.
My cat is not standing ,he cant control his head and body ...what should i do ?
Is there a veterinarian or veterinary neurologist in your area?
@@SEVNeurology yes i consulted them nd they r giving some medicines/injections to him and a medicine named neurokind
@@kamakshi3105 how's your sweet cat now?
He passed away 😔
I’m so sorry for your loss. Really I am.
My cat had a presumed Menigioma, I got another three years out of him with prednisone, which is the average life span extension with it.
Why the x rays? Just to check if thorax is clean to MRI or also to help discard one of the possible dif diagnosis?
More $$$$$$
Lenon the cat died like lenon the man , a big fat stroke
My cat died of a massive stroke 4 days ago.
I think my bros cat tiger has this
The cats dogs wild animals can have strokes and seizures heart attacks and cancers infection and tumors are very important for her to be careful of the cats dogs and I had congested heart failure and injuries.
Is this treatable or is this a death sentence?
Most get better with treatment and time.
What is the procedure happening at 6:37?
Spinal tap. Collection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
@@SEVNeurology Thank you so much for the fast reply. My cat unfortunately had a fatal stroke back in 2018 and it's been on my mind a lot lately then as fate would have it your video popped up. I found it very informative and was so happy to hear of the positive prognosis for Lenin. Thank you for the amazing work that you do!
poor baby :(
My cat just got a stroke is abut 13 yrs old but refuses too eat and drink he sleeps a lot he does not have a good balance anymore but looks like he still want to live life he just have no interest for food or liquids at all any suggestions Dr. Plz we don’t know what 2 do he was at the vet for 2 days and brought him back home.
Tough to say without examining him in person. Lab work? Examination? Has he seen a neurologist?
Yaagul, I am sorry about your cat, just trust that you will know when and if it is time to let him go...
Hi how did you manage with him going to the loo. I'm struggling with her just pooping where she lies.. She gets covered in it. Please help😢
@@julieadie8193don't make her suffer my cat passed yesterday from an stroke she couldn't make it shw was lying there i couldn't do anything she had her nervous system compromised. Just let her go, go to the vet and see if she can make it if she can't then put her on sleep im sorry.
Why prolong the poor cat’s suffering?

I liked everything you said, and done.....up until you coughed, and NOT covered your mouth. You're supposedly a Veterinarian. I would've walked out right then and there, if you we're speaking to me about my cat. How do you expect your customers to have respect for your procedures, and follow your instructions, if you don't have any respect for your customers and their pets, by covering your mouth when you cough ???
- First of all, this video was recorded a year ago, well before COVID-19. Secondly, there are virtually NO DISEASES that are zoonotic between humans & cats, so the kitty was in no danger whatsoever. Finally, the doctor was just floofing face to face with a MAINE COON. That sounded to me like a choking-on-cat-hair cough, which comes on suddenly and involuntarily - you have no time to react appropriately.
@@XPilotYT - Excellent point. I should have known that from all the fake pilots who mouth on the aviation channels who mouth off like their MS Flight Simulator experience trumps the 30-year 747 pilots in the comments. Sigh.
@@verreal- In the likely event that my theory was correct and he got a bit choked up from the exceedingly floofy Maine Coon, then his cough could have been nearly involuntary! Or are you one of those people who think that sneezing is impolite too? Because sorry, yeah - that would totally make you a Karen, too.
@@XPilotYT ~ I suspected from your username that you’d definitely relate to the sim jockey problem :-) I’m just embarrassed that I didn’t know about your channel before now! I’ve subscribed and I’m off to catch up on your back catalog. (Yep, I’m an #avgeek.) So for that alone, I am grateful for this Karen(s) incident. ;-)
Mary are you sure your name isn't Karen 🙄🙄🙄
