I hope I'm just being paranoid...
I got home from work today and checked on the kids, as usual. I had left Mojito out with SoCo last night/today and they were curled up together sleeping. When I had come in I discovered one of them left me a 'present' that was in perfect position to be smoshed when I walked in thanks guys.... so I was cleaning that up when I heard a sound like a squeeking mouse. I turn to look at the boys and Mojitos whole body was trembling and I picked him up and petted him, I tried to get him to face me but his head just kept flopping backwards... He was 'seizing' in parts of his body and limp in others and the 'seizures' seemed to 'hop' from one part to another. I didn't know what to do so I just kept calling to him and petting him and trying to wake him up then after a second his eyes opened up and he just stared at me a second before totally snapping out of it. His back left leg twitched a few times but then he was fine, he is his normal self now.
Was that a seizure or am I being paranoid? Usually when he sleeps he goes into the coma/death-like floppy mode but I've never seen him 'seize-up' like that before... and he kept half-squeeking. I've seen him dream but it never, ever was like this. I need to have his blood sugar checked asap but I need to know if he really is seizing and what my next step should be until I can get him to the vet? Thanks to my job, I can't get him there until MAYBE saturday (I dont know if I can get out of the training session I have/ how long it will take)
Ps the reason I say he doesn't need it is because he's already Adrenal and it would just suck for him to be adrenal and potentially insulinomic
