What’s wrong with a cat that twitches when it falls asleep?

It is possible that the twitching is caused by the cat’s dreaming. Because cats also dream, in their dreams they play, run and chase and fight, in reality they cannot control their legs and move with them. However, owners need to pay attention to some of the following situations and take their cats to the vet for examination and diagnosis if necessary. 1. If the frequency of the cat’s convulsions is high, it is likely to be caused by parasites. Some of the more serious parasitic diseases can affect cats not only in their sleep, but can also cause them to twitch when they are awake. This serious parasitic disease may also trigger epilepsy. 2. Calcium deficiency. Cats in their formative years may suffer from calcium deficiency leading to muscle spasms and leg convulsions. 3. If the cat has been troubled by parasites and is still convulsing after deworming, it is likely to be lacking in trace elements, mainly some vitamins, and the cat is likely to convulse more frequently and regularly. The owner can add some extra nutrition to the cat and usually have a more balanced nutrition during feeding.
