No idea on the cause and no family history for her, she was from the local rescue. Keto was in the zeitgeist at the time. I had looked at it for weight loss, but in learning about it, found that it has been advocated for epilepsy well before insulin was readily available.

I consulted with my vet on it first and they basically said, why not give it a try?
