My aunt's kitten is very cute and seemingly healthy. Yesterday (wednesday) I spent about 5 hours alone with the cat, mostly napping together, and noticed something a bit disturbing. :confused:
She'd be snuggled up next to me or on top of me or under me, whichever was most comfy at the time, I guess :D and she'd be purring softly. Then she'd stop purring, which I assumed meant she fell asleep. About half a minute to two minutes later, her paws started twitching, increasingly violent. Then her face would begin twitching and spasming increasingly violent also. It would progress to the point where she'd be shaking quite violently, and not easily woken up. Sometimes she'd wake up looking confused and dioriented, sometimes even frightened. :confused:
I thought maybe it was a bad dream the first time, but it was consistent throughout the day. It worries me a bit, any thoughts?
Thanks in advance, Don.
