Medical waste poisoning in a cat and the success of healing therapy at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Educational Mandalika University
Abstract
Poisoning in cats is often caused by their behavior, which often investigates what they see and find. This paper reported a case of poisoning in a cat with the results of clinical examination, hematological examination, and therapy in a three-year-old cat with symptoms of weakness, paleness, and vomiting foamy fluid. Hematological examination revealed that the cat had an infection and hyperchromic macrocytic anemia. Therefore, the cat was diagnosed with poisoning. Treatment with anti-dot, ringer lactate supportive, anti-inflammatory, and multivitamins was administered as follow-up treatment until he recovered for a week at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Educational Mandalika University.
