Drooling Cat

I can't get my cat into the veterinarian until tomorrow afternoon but I am really concerned about the symptoms that she is suffering.  This includes strange meowing, sudden urinating, dilated pupils at this moment.  This will occur approximately every 30 min and she doesn't appear to be with it, it's like she's having an episode or a fit without the convulsions. hadI'm not sure whether it is connected but she seems to have an insatiable appetite lately.

I just thought I would finalise this thread.  You are indeed correct that our cat was having seizures even though they were displaying with out the drooling initially.  It was initially thought that she had ingested some of our medication but unfortunately she was undergoing severe brain trauma in the form of a bleed and had to be put down.

your cat may be having seizures which require your vets attention. The drooling may be a pre-seizure sign if  epilepsy and seizures are the correct issue. Drooling can also occur because your cat ate or chewed on something.
Taking your cat to the vet before the holiday would be a wise decision

I should just mention as the title suggests she is also drooling.
