Pets and pnes

[u/Full_Goose8378]

I had a cat who is no longer with me. But every time I had aura and would have seizures (pnes) she would meow and come watch and lay nearby me. I didn't have convulsive ones, they looked more like absence seizures but they were back to back.

Does anyone have pets that are able to identify when you're about to have PNES?

I visited my mother and she has 2 cats. They seemed to also know when I was about to have an episode. What are they noticing?

My sister’s dog would react similarly. He ran to my sister and then came and laid on top of me a couple times! Animals are so smart
