If your cat experiences seizures lasting over an hour, known as status epilepticus, it is a critical emergency that requires immediate veterinary attention. It's vital to get your cat to a veterinarian or an emergency animal hospital as quickly as possible. Prolonged seizures can lead to serious complications, including brain damage, and it's essential for a professional to identify and treat the underlying cause.

While you are waiting for veterinary care, make sure your cat is in a safe environment where he cannot injure himself. Keep him away from sharp objects or stairs, and gently cushion his head. It's important not to restrain him or place anything in his mouth.

Please seek veterinary care immediately. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Thank you.
