Abstract

A common conjunctival disease in kittens is Chlamydiosis. Chlamydia bacteria invade and infect the cells of the conjunctiva causing inflammation and eye discharge. Clinical signs develop within a few days of infection and begin with eye discharge. The aim of this article is to improve the knowledge of veterinary colleagues in managing cases of conjunctivitis in kittens caused by chlamydial bacterial infection. A 5-month-old female local cat weighing 1.6 kg named Chips had complaints of eye swelling, eye redness and continuous tear and eye discharge since it was adopted. The cat showed signs of difficulty opening the eyes. The diagnosis was confirmed by haematology and cytology examination. Cytological examination of the eye discharge swab was positive for Chlamydophila felis. Haematological examination showed leukocytosis, lymphocytosis and thrombocytopenia. The cat was diagnosed with Feline Chlamydiosis. The cat was treated with Erlamycetin Plus Eye Drop (Chloramphenicol and Dexamethasone) one drop twice daily for 14 days. Supportive therapy with immunomodulator Echinacea purpurea (Imboost Kids Syrup 60 ml) was given twice daily for 2.5 ml for 14 days. The therapy showed satisfactory results. On day 14 the cat was declared cured after therapy and routine eye cleaning. It can be concluded that cats with Chlamydiosis can be treated until cured using topical antibiotics and immunomodulators. The importance of early detection and owner understanding of good and healthy environmental conditions to prevent recurrent infections.

Abstract

An emergency is a condition that requires rapid and appropriate action to prevent a situation that can guarantee safety. This condition occurred in a 2-year-old local male cat that had not been spayed and presented with extreme weakness, dysuria, oliguria, and decreased consciousness with a very weak body response. Physical examination showed a tense bladder palpation, slow skin turgor, dry mucosa, tachycardia, and weak pulse, indicating an emergency condition due to dehydration and possible urinary tract obstruction. Supporting examinations included urinalysis, SDMA, hematology, and ultrasound. Results showed an alkaline urine pH, struvite crystals, a positive urease bacterial infection, and hyperechoic material in the bladder. The patient was diagnosed with hemorrhagic cystitis with a questionable prognosis. Treatment consisted of stabilizing the patient's condition using warmers and Ringer's Lactate infusion fluid therapy, followed by drug therapy using the antibiotic ciprofloxacin for 14 days, acidifying with Acidurin for 7 days, supportive care with Cystaid for 14 days, ipakitine for 7 days and changing the feed to WetFood for the Urinary Tract. The results of the therapy showed positive results, with the patient's condition improving. Prevention of urinary tract disorders is done by maintaining cleanliness, ensuring adequate water intake, providing special food, and immediately consulting a veterinarian if there are symptoms of difficulty urinating.

Abstract

Urolithiasis is a condition where uroliths or crystals form excessively in the urinary tract, such as the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder and urethra. Specifically, the presence of uroliths in the urinary bladder is called cystolithiasis. Risk factors for urolithiasis can include several aspects, namely urinary tract infections, feed, lack of drinking water intake, gender, race, age, and obesity factors. The case cat named Kiko with a domestic short hair breed, 3 years old, male with black and white hair and weighing 6 kg has had difficulty urinating since February 26, 2025. The results of the physical examination showed that the cat had dysuria, stranguria and hematuria. Ultrasonography examination found crystals in the urinary bladder and thickening of the mucosal wall of the urinary bladder. The results of the native and sedimentation examinations showed struvite crystals in the patient's urine. The results of the urine chemistry examination showed an increase in leukocytes and blood in the urine and a urine pH of 8.5. Treatment was carried out by installing a urinary catheter to flush the urinary bladder. Drug therapy given was by administering the antibiotic cefadroxil, the anti-inflammatory dexamethasone, and probiotics. To prevent the risk of this disease recurring, dietary changes were made by providing prescribe urinary feed.

Abstract

Ehrlichiosis is a tick-borne bacterial infection caused by several Ehrlichia species, including E. canis, E. chaffeensis, and E. ewingii. The bacteria are primarily transmitted by ticks of the genera Rhipicephalus and Amblyomma. A 4-year-old mixed-breed female dog named Cookie was presented with anorexia and lameness. Physical examination revealed an infestation of Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks on the dorsal and ventral body areas and around the ears, along with mildly pale mucous membranes. Complete blood count (CBC) results indicated leukopenia, granulocytopenia, thrombocytopenia, increased mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and decreased plateletcrit (PCT). Microscopic examination of a blood smear showed round, purplish-blue inclusions within the cytoplasm of monocytes. A rapid test confirmed the presence of Ehrlichia antibodies. Based on anamnesis, clinical findings, and laboratory results, the dog was diagnosed with ehrlichiosis. The treatment included sarolaner (Simparica®), doxycycline (Dohixat®), and multivitamins (Livron B-plex®). After 28 days of therapy, the dog showed marked clinical improvement, with normal appetite and hematological parameters returning to reference ranges.
