I generally put him in his crate and sit there with him to comfort him untill its over, usually they only last a few minutes but it does seem like a enternity.

Thankyou for your reply I'm relieved to hear that there is medication if she does have epilepsy. And, yes, it did feel like it was lasting forever...in reality it could have only been seconds. Kaddie is at home now...she was very unsettled at the vets so they said to bring her home so she can rest (she's asleep now). We have to wait for blood test results. The vet didnt seem overly concerned - he said he can't say for definite that it's epilepsy after one seizure. Thankyou for keeping her in your thoughts and prayers...I'll certainly update this thread xxx xxx
