Cats with acute onset of partial seizure involving orofacial movements, such as salivation, facial twitching, lip smacking, chewing, licking, or swallowing, along with other behavioral changes, such as sitting and staring while motionless and/or acting confused, have been diagnosed with a form of hippocampal necrosis (Pakozdy et al. 2011). The majority of these cats exhibited other neurological abnormalities on their first presentation. Seizures in cats may also be associated with metabolic disease such as diabetes mellitus, hepatic encephalopathy, neoplasia, or meningoencephalitis (Barnes et al. 2004).
