The pancreas is an organ that plays an important role in digestion, by secreting digestive enzymes, and in regulating blood sugar levels.

Pancreatitis happens when the enzymes are activated while still in the pancreas, causing the digestion process to begin on the organ itself and resulting in painful inflammation.
Pancreatitis can affect cats of any age, and the signs can range from subtle and non-specific, through to severe and life threatening.

Signs your cat may have pancreatitis include:
- Reduced appetite or refusing to eat
- Lethargy or hiding away
- Vomiting
- Weight loss
- Dehydration
- Possible abdominal discomfort, which can be difficult to recognize in cats

Pancreatitis in cats can be caused by many different things, and can either be a short term (acute pancreatitis) or long term condition (chronic pancreatitis), requiring different types of supportive care.

Diagnosing pancreatitis can be challenging and may require blood tests, ultrasound, and a thorough veterinary examination. Treatment is focused on supportive care, including pain relief, fluids, anti-nausea medication, and nutritional support to help your cat recover.

If you have any questions or would like to book an appointment, contact our reception team on (02) 6251 1444 or email [email protected].

A small puncture wound can turn into a big problem.

Animals hold lots of harmful bacteria in their mouths and claws, and can carry diseases that are transferred through blood or saliva.
For cats who find themselves in disagreements with other cats or wildlife when outdoors, these bacteria can be introduced into their bodies during fights and lead to infections.

Infections can develop into painful wounds or lumps of pus, which require medical attention to resolve.

Signs to watch for include:
🐾 A painful swelling or lump
🐾 An open wound that's oozing pus or has a bad smell
🐾 Limping or reluctance to move
🐾 Lethargy
🐾 Reduced appetite

Abscesses often develop 2–7 days after a fight, and the bite wound that caused them can be small and easy to miss.
If you are suspicious that your cat has an abscess, we recommend not waiting for it to burst—book a veterinary appointment as soon as possible.

Treatments often involve draining the abscess, cleaning the infected area, and providing pain relief and antibiotics.
In some cases however, a wound may be more severe and require surgical intervention.

The sooner a cat is treated, the lower the risk of the infection becoming worse, and the more likely their recovery will be quick and comfortable.

📞If you have any questions or would like to speak to our team regarding your cats health, contact us on (02) 6251 1444 or [email protected] to book an appointment.
