I was too scared to go back but I sent my mum in and he's stopped.

I think last night he was having mild ones (the symptoms near enough match what he was having) then now he has had a bad one which can paralyse him or give him brain damage if they go on too long. Im so scared as he's not moving around much but I don't what to make him.

The vets are closed.
I've read up on seizures and it says that there is no treatment :(
I've left him to calm down and sleep.
Will offer him a treat later to see if he wants it.
Send him my love and wifey's too.
Just have to hope for the best then, i guess, but we'll be rooting for him.
As you can see over today's pages here in The CDR several people have been wishing him well today.

@ZEROPILOT Thanks for everything, my friend, and hope you get well soon, it's no fun being ill like that.
And thanks for making the effort to post even though you're feeling bad! :)

Just been back to check on cheddar...
Well, I sent my mum in while I stayed by the door. He was still sitting there but I came in and gave him some Cheerios that he demolished.
Really hope he gets better :(
Wow! Much better than I pessimistically thought.
Looking more hopeful if he's eating.:)
Indeed, really hoping for the best.

I am really sorry poor Cheddar is so poorly. Maybe a quick visits to the vet tomorrow will help you decide what to do for the best for him to make sure he is not in pain and suffering.

Yeah, hoping I can find a way to stop him. It says they are normally triggered by stress and changes but he's not had any changes :(

Just hoping for the best and leaving him in a dark room :(

Just keep an eye on him to make sure he can move.

I'm glad he's enjoying his favorite treats. I hope you'll be okay and feel peaceful however this goes. You really have done everything you can. If Cheddar does leave us, he has had a WONDERFUL life with you. Their lives are so short and I'm so glad he was loved throughout it.

I agree with Lyn's suggestion to keep water nearby. It may be a good idea to put a single drop in his mouth every so often with a baby medicine syringe too. I'm really hoping Cheddar will be okay, but sadly... I've nursed a few small creatures as they leave this world and have found it necessary to put a bit of water in their mouths regularly to keep them comfortable until the leave.
