My husband and I recently traveled out of the country for 10 days-- the longest we have ever been away from Oliver. When we returned home, he seemed to be suffering from his Spring/Fall allergies, although I did notice he ha d lost a lot of weight. When I took him to his doctor, I noticed that he seemed to be having muscle spams. She said that he was probably "nervous" from being in her office and that it would subside when we returned home. They have not.
I liken thee spasms to when we press our thumb into our inner wrist, triggering our fingers constrict in from pressing the muscle. When these spams occur, his face contorts and his hind legs constrict. I have also watched him try to sleep-- which he is unable to do which in turn has made him a little punchy.
The spasms have not stopped and needless to say-- I am VERY worried. When I watch him, I feel helpless as I cannot deduce whether or not he is in pain. I have done so much research on this and have had people speculate that this is feline hyperestesia, yet he does not possess any of the symptoms except the twitching.
Oliver has not had ANY health problems other than the allergies. He is an incredibly happy cat. Any advise is appreciated and helpful.
PS: I also have video if anyone would like to see that.
