Abstract

<h4>Case summary</h4>A 2-year-old male domestic shorthair cat presented to the University of Liverpool Small Animal Teaching Hospital with a 2 week history of altered mentation, blindness and focal epileptic seizures. MRI examination revealed generalised cerebral and cerebellar atrophy, diffuse T2-weighted hyperintensity of the white matter and meningeal thickening. Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis was confirmed on post-mortem examination.<h4>Relevance and novel information</h4>This is the first report of the MRI findings of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in a cat.
