Scratch loved her toys, but the medication she was on to control her seizures left her too lethargic to play.

     "Usually she would have two or three seizures over 6 to 24 hours. This cluster would cycle every 45 days or so. It was treated with Phenobarbital and Valium for three years, but she would still have the seizures every 40-60 days. The vet said it was the best we could hope for. . . .The picture shows what the medication she was on did to her. She had no interest in toys or playing for the last year of her life because of the meds to control the seizures. "
