Epilepsy

When a human has epilepsy, whether from birth or aquired, everything possible is done to arrest, compensate for and alleviate the symptoms. What about pets? If they are or become afflicted with this condition should they be discarded or destroyed? The answer is a definate NO!! As long as your companion can be treated, understood and taken care of there is no reason to be rid of them. The only time anyone should put an animal down is when their quality of life can no longer be maintained.... that is to say, when they are no longer able to function with relative normalcy and are truely suffering. There are drugs available (similar to those for humans) that can help (along with a little understanding) your friend lead a healthy and happy life.
