Feline Pyometra
PYOMETRA
Pyometra is the accumulation of pus or "nana" in the uterus due to the influence of hormones and bacterial infection. Certain hormones can cause changes to the uterus that make it favorable for bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, to multiply and cause infection.
Vaginal discharge can be observed in cats with the open type pyometra. This can be accompanied by other signs such as lack of appetite, weakness, vomiting among others.
The treatment of choice and prevention for this condition is ovariohysterectomy, or spay, or "kapon", which is the surgical removal of the cat's ovaries and uterus.
If left untreated, it can lead to sepsis or the spread of infection to other parts of the body, compromising not only the uterus but also the other organs.

Is my cat pregnant? 🙀🤰
The gold standard for pregnancy diagnosis is abdominal ultrasonography. It is especially helpful in differentiating pregnancy from other causes of uterine distention (eg, hydrometra, pyometra, mucometra). Ultrasonographical measurements can be used to calculate gestational age, it is useful in cases that owner is not certain if the cat is pregnant or not.
Here's a clip of a very healthy kitten in utero (inside the womb) to cheer you up! ☺😻
To know more about your cat's reproductive health, consult your trusted veterinarian 😺😸

DID YOU KNOW?
Cats are a host to different kinds of mites that can cause excessive scratching, hair loss, crusty skin lesions, head shaking, otitis, and in severe cases dermatitis with secondary bacterial infection.
Mites are very small parasites, often microscopic. They are different from ticks, fleas, and lice.
Here is an example of a mite called Sarcoptes scabiei. The cause of sarcoptic mange in cats.

Case of a "Balloon Kitty"
A Siamese cat was presented to us because of acute but severe respiratory distress and coughing. The cat was jaundiced and there are presence of subcutaneous emphysema (air trapped on skin) at the thoracic and abdominal regions.
Hemogram revealed severe dehydration, severely low white blood cells and anemia. There were no signs of physical trauma to the subcutaneous tissues but crepitating sound and abdominal distension are palpated around the subcutaneous tissues.
Due to unknown history of vaccination, and recent death of household cats, we suspect a viral agent and bronchopneumonia to the affected cat. The cat also tested positive for panleukopenia virus. Unfortunately, the kitty lost its battle in less than 24hrs of hospitalization.
Subcutaneous Emphysema results from accumulation of air or other gasses in the subcutaneous tissue due to trauma or soft tissue infection with anaerobic gas forming bacteria. Moreover, spontaneous rupture of lung tissue is a common cause which should be suspected with an animal with generalized SE. It is also associated with Feline Herpesvirus-1.

Almost everyday we get questions like “what is the best food for my cat?”
Is this brand X salty?” 🤔
There are lots of pet food available commercially. Some may come in different price points and true enough, all are formulated based on the needs of a carnivore - your cat. So, is it safe to give whatever brand of cat food to your cat?
Every cat age group has a specific nutritional requirement. This is the reason why you should allow a kitten eat 6 to 8 times a day. Let it grow and develop muscles! Things change when they reach their maturity. By this time, you should’ve monitored health issues like urinating patterns and this changes must be reported to your trusted veterinarian.
The answer to the above questions is yes but gentle reminder that UTI or FLUTD or lower urinary tract diseases in cats is not solely due to diet or poor cat food quality. There are factors to be considered like stress and genetic predisposition. When genes as cause seems like a dead end, pet owners should understand the cats who are very likely to develop any bladder disease should be subjected to a urinary prescription diet. And perhaps, consider spaying and neutering so that the cats with this hereditary disease will no longer multiply.
Sharing with you a clip of our patient who underwent a cystotomy due to recurring episode of hematuria. Struvite bladder stones are rock-like mineral formations that develop in the urinary bladder. Though struvite crystals are a normal finding in urine, at low levels, some cats are highly predisposed in developing one due to genetic factors.
