‼️Warning: Surgical images‼️
When your vet encourages you to desex your female dog or cat, THIS is why!!! 💯
This is a uterus from a cat during surgery. It is FULL of pus. 320mls of pus to be exact (second photo) 🤮
This uterus weighed 870g. After surgery, this poor little cat weighed only 3.5kg. (She was 4.5kg prior to surgery) 😳
This infection, called pyometra, is very common in female dogs and cats who have not been desexed, and is so severe that it can easily be fatal. Without life saving surgery, this very sick kitty would have died 😞
PLEASE desex your pets. We don’t say it for fun 🙏
