Article Synopsis
- Two cats with chronic kidney disease experienced myoclonus after receiving gabapentin, an effect previously noted in humans but undocumented in felines.
- Both cats had a history of seizures and were administered gabapentin to reduce anxiety prior to their veterinary visits, where they exhibited unusual head jerking separate from prior seizure activity.
- This case highlights the need for veterinary awareness of gabapentin's potential adverse effects in cats, particularly in those with kidney disease, indicating the need for further research on risk factors.
