• Feline Distemper Vaccine: Also known as Feline Panleukopenia Vaccine (FPV). Protects against feline panleukopenia virus, a highly contagious and often fatal viral disease affecting a cat's gastrointestinal tract and immune system.
• Otodectes cynotis: A parasitic mite commonly known as ear mites that infest the ear canal of cats. Ear mite infestations can cause irritation, inflammation, and secondary bacterial infections.
• FLUTD (Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease): A collective term for disorders affecting the bladder and urethra in cats. Symptoms may include frequent urination, blood in the urine, straining to urinate, and urinating outside the litter box.
• CRF (Chronic Renal Failure): Also known as Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). A progressive and irreversible deterioration of kidney function over time. Common in older cats and may result in symptoms such as increased thirst, increased urination, weight loss, and loss of appetite.

Also known as Feline Panleukopenia Vaccine (FPV). Protects against feline panleukopenia virus, a highly contagious and often fatal viral disease affecting a cat's gastrointestinal tract and immune system.

Every time to see the patient or talk to the client

feeding an animal against their will by physically restraining them and inserting food into their mouth or stomach.

Watching an animal during hospitalization to note behavior and status

• - Patient's name (if applicable) -
• Date and time of the message -
• Nature of the message or reason for communication -
• Contact information of the sender (name, phone number, email) -
• Any specific instructions or requests - Any relevant medical information or updates regarding the patient, if applicable

1. Tricuspid valve (right atrioventricular valve)
2. Pulmonary valve (pulmonary semilunar valve)
3. Mitral valve (left atrioventricular valve)
4. Aortic valve (aortic semilunar valve)

Arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the heart. Veins carry oxygenated blood back to the heart. Capillaries are where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange occurs.

mitral and tricuspid

• not clotted-serum
• clotted-plasma

• "Septum: Divides two cavities or parts, such as the nasal septum separating the left and right nasal passages in mammals.
• Diaphragm: A dome-shaped muscle separating the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity in mammals, contracting during inhalation and relaxing during exhalation to facilitate breathing.
• Alveoli: Tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs, allowing oxygen to enter the bloodstream and carbon dioxide to be removed.
• Hemoglobin: A protein in red blood cells that binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body, facilitating oxygen delivery to cells and tissues.

Divides two cavities or parts, such as the nasal septum separating the left and right nasal passages in mammals.

It exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide. It also helps regulate the body's pH balance and plays a role in vocalization and the sense of smell.

The left lung typically has two lobes: the superior and inferior lobes. The right lung usually has three lobes: the superior, middle, and inferior lobes.

Duodenum Jejunum Ileum

Receives partially digested food from the stomach and mixes it with digestive enzymes and bile.

Middle section of the small intestine where significant absorption of carbohydrates and proteins occurs.

Final and longest section responsible for absorbing remaining nutrients, particularly fats and fat-soluble vitamins, and containing clusters of lymphoid tissue important for the immune system.

Cardiac sphincter-Located where the esophagus ends and the stomach starts

Body-Main portion of the stomach

Duodenum-Where pancreatic secretions enter the digestive tract

Accessory digestive organs-Organs that are not anatomically part of the digestive tract but are responsible for part of the digestive process

Liver-The organ that produces bile

Gallbladder- The organ that stores bile

Cardiac sphincter, Body, Duodenum, Accessory digestive organs, Liver, Gallbladder

"Regulates the passage of food from the esophagus into the stomach and prevents stomach contents from refluxing back into the esophagus.

Situated between the fundus (upper portion) and the pylorus (lower portion), where much of the gastric digestion and mixing of food with gastric juices occur.

Connects to the stomach and receives partially digested food (chyme) mixed with digestive enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver and gallbladder for further digestion and absorption of nutrients

Includes organs such as the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, which assist with digestion but are not part of the alimentary canal.

Performs vital functions including bile production, metabolism of nutrients, detoxification of harmful substances, and storage of glycogen, vitamins, and minerals.

Stores and concentrates bile produced by the liver, releasing it into the duodenum to aid in the digestion and absorption of fats.
