Understanding Feline Intestinal Prolapse: Causes & Symp

Causes of Intestinal Intussusception in Cats:

1. Intestinal parasites, colds, and enteritis can trigger the condition.

2. Cats may develop intussusception after ingesting foreign objects.

3. Improper feeding or medication can also lead to this issue.

Medical Examinations:

1. Blood Tests: Inflammation can be indicated by the presence of inflammatory white blood cells and toxic granules in neutrophils.

2. Serum Biochemistry: During serum biochemistry, there may be a decrease in albumin and globulin levels, as well as electrolyte imbalances.

3. Auxiliary Examinations: Xrays are typically used for辅助检查. If the Xray images do not clearly reveal intussusception, a barium enema may be necessary for a definitive diagnosis.

Treatment Options:

Once intestinal intussusception is confirmed, prompt intervention is crucial to prevent complications such as necrosis of the intestines, which can be lifethreatening. In most cases, surgery is the recommended course of action to address the issue effectively.
