Caroline, Bless you for caring so much about this little problem child! While I hate to hope that an animal was abused, I do hope that his problems, whatever they turn out to be, ARE finite and treatable. You know, if these folks are really old, maybe they just aren't up on current thinking on

you wouldn't substitute the pheno w/steroids, but it all depends on the cause of the seizures. my Ninja had seizures that started out once every few weeks and ended up being 5-7 a day - I spoke with several vets and we started her on prednisone under the supposition that my positive kitty had
