So, I have to finally realize that Rosey is 16 in a few months, and is no longer a spring chicken.
She's been having, in the last year or so, what I think are focal seizures. She will just suddenly kind of stare into space, her head will start shaking, and then, just as quick as it started, it's done, and she continues on with life like nothing happened. That may have been a real bad discription, it's hard to describe. As far as frequency.. It's tough. I'd say it used to be 1-3 times a day. Now that she's on a grain-free food with different proteins, I'd say 1-3 times a week. They literally last 5-10 seconds and it's done. Nobody else really notices it, it's so fast and not a problem for her.
She's going to the vet at some point soon -- when is up in the air. It depends on how much the ferrets cost me tomorrow, and when my vet can fit us in/when I have a day off, when it comes down to it. I am aware she should have gone to the vet earlier, probably, so I really don't need to hear that.
My vet is awesome and will give as much support medically as she can if it does turn out to be something. I guess more I was looking for info from people who have been there done that. Though from the medical standpoint would be good too.
I have a friend who has dealt with seizures for a while, done lots of research, etc that is willing to help however with info if it does turn out to be something, but the more info can't hurt?
Ugh sorry, my mind was all over the place there
