my kitten was recently hit by a door, rather hard in the head. since his accident he will go into what look like muscle spasms/seizures where his right arm tightens up to his torso and his head and right eye twitch. he also now appears to have trouble seeing clearly. can you tell me if this is a case of pinched nerves or something much more severe?

Dear friend,

It sounds like your baby has a concussion. You need to have him seeen by a vet because he is developing seizure activity. He can actually lose his sight if he is not prescribed medicaton for this. In the meantime, keep him very, very quiet and of course indoors until you can get him evaluated.

Please let me kno how he is and if you still have questions. I will be happy to help in any way possible.

Very sincerely,

Terri
