Question
due to putting Sargents flea drops on my cat he is now having spasms/seizures i gave him a bathat 1:00am with dawn trying to counteract it, what can I do he shakes uncontrolable

Answer
Hi Tammy,

It sounds like he is suffering a toxic reaction resulting in neurological problems. These are often fatal if not treated promptly. If the little one is still hanging in there and is displaying any symptoms, no matter how mild, he should see an emergency vet. I had a cat experience the same problem. He was hospitalized and received IV fluids and anticonvulsants for a few days, but he survived. Good luck!
