The reason why cats keep twitching while foaming at the mouth may be caused by the cat being infected with viruses or parasites. It is recommended to take the cat to the veterinarian immediately, let the veterinarian examine it and give it a corresponding treatment.
1. Poisoning
If a cat accidentally eats toxic substances, such as rat poison, cockroach medicine, disinfectant, etc., it will invade the cat's nerves, causing the cat to foam in the mouth and twitch all the time, and in severe cases, it will also lead to shock or even death. Therefore, when the owner finds that the cat has been exposed to poison and has symptoms, he must take the cat to the pet hospital for detoxification treatment in time to avoid irreparable levels.
2, Epilepsy
If a cat is foaming at the mouth and twitching, and is accompanied by symptoms such as incontinence, local or general body spasms, trembling and unconscious limb strokes, it may be an epileptic seizure, and the attack time will generally last for 1-3 minutes. At this time, what the owner needs to do is to keep it as quiet as possible, avoid external stimulation, prevent mechanical damage, and then take the cat to the pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
3. Cat plague
When cat plague is in the later stage, cats have abnormal nerves, which will cause convulsions and foaming mouths, and will also be accompanied by symptoms such as listlessness, loss of appetite, fever, and bloody stools. In particular, cats with incomplete vaccination or unvaccinated cats are more susceptible to cat plague. Because cat plague is highly contagious and has a high mortality rate, the owner must send the cat to a pet hospital for treatment in time.
