Kitten Seizures: Causes, Risks, and What to Do

Seizures can be fatal if they cause permanent brain damage or impair breathing. Causes include epilepsy, head trauma, metabolic abnormalities. While seizures themselves rarely cause death, underlying conditions or complications may be life‑threatening.

Seek immediate veterinary care for prolonged, recurrent seizures or if accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of consciousness. Prompt treatment improves survival and long‑term outcomes.
