In approximately two-thirds of the epileptic cats in this article, an idiopathic epilepsy had to be assumed. It began between six and 36 months of age with a single seizure, which usually occurred during rest or sleep. Symptomatic epilepsy was frequently observed during the first two years of life and in old age, beginning frequently with multiple seizures or status epilepticus and less often during sleep or rest. In both types, grand mal seizures are predominant. Seizure clusters or status epilepticus caused extensive neuron necroses and scleroses in Ammon's horn. Diazepana and phenobarbital are antiepileptics of first choice for the cat; primidone and phenytoin are less suitable.
在本文中，约三分之二的癫痫猫被认为患有特发性癫痫。其发病年龄在6至36个月之间，首发症状为单次发作，通常发生在休息或睡眠期间。症状性癫痫常见于生命的头两年和老年期，常以多次发作或癫痫持续状态起病，较少在睡眠或休息时发作。在这两种类型中，大发作均占主导地位。癫痫发作簇或癫痫持续状态导致海马角广泛的神经元坏死和硬化。地西泮和苯巴比妥是猫的首选抗癫痫药物；扑米酮和苯妥英钠不太适用。
