A 12-year-old castrated male Japanese domestic cat was presented for evaluation of frequent seizures accompanied by tonic convulsion. MRI examination revealed a space-occupying lesion with a clear boundary in the area from the temporal to occipital region of the left cerebral hemisphere. The intracranial mass was surgically removed, and was histologically diagnosed as meningioma. Although neurological abnormalities such as lowered consciousness level, circling, and visual disturbance with loss of pupillary light reflex and menace reflex were temporally observed after surgery, the cat was improved with time by intensive postoperative care. Seizure disappeared after surgical removal of the intracranial menigioma in this case.
