Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Kittens; Animal behavior Abstract: A continuous video-recording, of a queen and her kittens from 5 days prior to parturition until the kittens were 6 weeks old provided the basis for an analysis of both of their behaviours. The study highlighted the shift in pattern of behaviour by the queen when faced with the demands of her litter, identified the first occurrence of specific behaviours in the developing kittens and provided an accurate measure of the duration of each behaviour. In the case of behaviours that occurred regularly throughout the day, or were of long duration. the results obtained were in agreement with other focal studies, but the first occurrence of a specific behaviour tended to be observed earlier than previously reported. 39 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Ctenocephalides felis; Females; Blood-meals; Hematophagy; Isotope labeling; Measurement; Methodology; Radionuclides; Ultrasound; Anesthesia Abstract: The volume of blood consumed by actively reproducing female cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis (Bouche), while feeding in confinement feeding chambers on cats for 3 h, was investigated using two radionuclide blood tags (51Cr-erythrocyte and 125I-albumin) and the gravimetric method. Female fleas consumed an average of 0.110 ml (+/-0.026 ml) of blood per 100 females in 3 h as determined using the dual radionuclide system. The single 51Cr-erythrocyte tag overestimated blood consumption by 11.3% and the single 125I-albumin tag underestimated blood consumption by 6.4%. The gravimetric method underestimated blood consumption by 72.2% compared with the dual radionuclide value. Investigations of blood consumption of nonconfined female fleas were conducted with cats housed in metabolic cages and restricted from grooming. These investigations were conducted using the single 51Cr-erythrocyte tag, and the data obtained were corrected to compensate for using a single erythrocyte tag. Female cat fleas consumed an average of 13.6 microliters (+/-2.7 microliters) of blood per day, which was equivalent to 15.15 times their body weight. In an additional study, direct exposure to 40 kHz ultrasound did not reduce blood consumption by the fleas. 44 NAL Call. No.: SF406.A5 Blood transfusions. I. The blood donor colony. O'Neill, S.

Language: English Descriptors: Diet; Vitamin deficiencies; Pyridoxine; Development; Brain; Cats Abstract: Vitamin B-6 deficiency has been reported to produce behavioral, neurophysiological and neuropathological abnormalities in a variety of species. In this investigation we used brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) to determine if vitamin B-6 deficiency in cats affected peripheral and brainstem auditory pathways. Brainstem auditory evoked potentials were recorded from growing cats as they developed vitamin B-6 deficiency, which was confirmed using clinical, hematological and urinary criteria. The BAEP interwave intervals measured from early (wave 1 or 1N) to late waves (5N) or from middle (wave 3) to late waves increased significantly, whereas interwave intervals from early to middle waves did not differ significantly. These results indicate that vitamin B-6 deficiency affects on or more structures of the brainstem that generate the later parts of the BAEP. The finding of prolonged interwave intervals in vitamin B-6-deficient animals is consistent with slowed axonal conduction velocity secondary to defective myelination. Recording BAEP provided a noninvasive means of detecting effects of vitamin B-6 deficiency on specific parts of the central nervous system. 46 NAL Call.

Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Stress; Handling; Skin tests; Corticotropin; Hydrocortisone; Melanotropins; Restraint of animals; Anesthesia Abstract: In 6 cats, mean +/- SEM baseline plasma concentrations of cortisol, corticotropin, and alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) were 87 +/- 16 nmol/L, 73 +/- 14 ng/L, and 129 +/- 12 ng/L, respectively. The cats were subjected to: handling and subsequent skin testing without anesthesia; anesthesia with 50 mg of ketamine HCl and 2.5 mg of diazepam given IV, immediately followed by handling and skin testing; and anesthesia and handling as previously described, but without skin testing. Significant (P < 0.05; multivariate analysis for repeated measures) increase in plasma cortisol, corticotropin, and alpha-MSH concentrations was observed until 20 minutes after the start of the experiments in cats undergoing physical restraint and subsequent skin testing with or without preceding anesthesia. These responses were largely abolished when anesthesia with ketamine and diazepam was only followed by handling. We conclude that, during stress in cats (in contrast to dogs), the pituitary intermediate lobe is activated to secrete alpha-MSH. In addition, the cortisol response after skin testing of cats under anesthesia may be a reasonable explanation for the reported weak skin test reactivity in cats. 72 NAL Call.

Washington, D.C. : The Academy; 1992 Jun01. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America v. 89 (11): p. 5063-5067. ill; 1992 Jun01. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Mice; Vision; Vision disorders; Animal behavior; Hearing; Orientation; Touch Abstract: Cats deprived of vision from birth adapt remarkably well to their situation and show little behavioral impairment. They seem to compensate for their lack of vision by relying more on their auditory and tactile senses. We report here that the facial vibrissae, which are most important for tactile orientation in many animals, show supernormal growth in both cats and mice that have been deprived of vision from birth. Furthermore, the whisker representation in the somatosensory cortical barrel field shows a concomitant enlargement in binocularly enucleated mice: individual barrels are expanded in size by up to one-third. The increased use of the vibrissae in visually deprived animals may stimulate both their own growth and, via activation of the respective neural pathways, the expansion of their central representation. 98 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cat; Young animals; Diets; Heinz bodies; Incidence; Histamine; Vitamin a; Nitrites; Propylene glycol Abstract: Heinz body formation was examined in kittens, in response to consumption of a variety of diets. A commercial salmon-based diet containing 16.5 mg of nitrite, 39 mg of histamine, and 210,000 IU of vitamin A/kg of diet (dry-matter basis) was found to induce Heinz body formation. Purified experimental diets--containing nitrite up to 405 mg/kg; histamine, 50 mg/kg; histamine, 50 mg/kg plus nitrite, 45 mg/kg; or vitamin A, 250,000 IU/kg--failed to induce Heinz body formation. The effect of propylene glycol (PG) on Heinz body formation was examined by giving groups of 6 kittens purified diets containing 5 or 10% PG for 12 weeks. Two additional kittens were fed a commercial soft-moist diet containing PG for 12 weeks. All kittens fed PG developed Heinz bodies, with peak values for erythrocytes containing Heinz bodies being: 28% for kittens of the 10% PG group; 20% for kittens of the 5% PG group; and 36% for kittens of the soft-moist diet group. Kittens did not develop anemia or methemoglobinemia. Heinz body percentage required 6 to 8 weeks to decrease to the pretreatment value of < 1% after diets containing PG were discontinued. 51Chromium-labeled erythrocytes were used to evaluate erythrocyte survival in 4 kittens of the 10% PG-fed group and in 4 control kittens. Kittens with Heinz body formation induced by 10% PG had significantly (P < 0.001) decreased erythrocyte survival, compared with that for controls, with half-life of 8.3 days for kittens of the PG group, compared with 12.6 days for kittens of the control group. 121 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Magnesium ammonium phosphate; Magnesium; Diet; Urine; Solubility; Ph; Calcium; Phosphates; Ammonium Abstract: Groups of male specific-pathogen-free cats were fed a basal, purified diet (A), with or without 0.45% added magnesium (MgCl2, diet B; MgO, diet C) or 1 of 2 commercial diets (D,E). Urine samples collected for 48 hours after 2 weeks of feeding were analyzed for calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, ammonium, sulfate, phosphate, oxalate, and citrate content. Concentrations were used to calculate the negative logarithm of the struvite activity product (pSAP), using a microcomputer-based program for calculation of supersaturation of the urine with crystal solutes. The pSAP value for all samples also was hand-calculated by use of an equation. Consumption of diet B caused a significant (P < 0.05) increase in urine calcium concentration. Total urine phosphate concentration was lower in urine from cats fed diets A, B, or C than in urine from cats fed diets D or E. For the various diets, urine PO4-3 was: 5.3 microM for diet A; 6.3 microM for diet C; 0.9 microM for diet E; 36 nM for diet D, and 0.5 nM for diet B. Consumption of diets B and C caused significant increases in urine magnesium concentration (53.1 nM and 49.1 mM, respectively). Ammonium ion concentration was highest in urine from cats fed diets B and D, 116.2 mM and 100.3 mM, respectively. When the pSAP, hand-calculated assuming ionic strength u = 0.2, was regressed on that calculated by use of the microcomputer program, the coefficient of determination was 0.96 (P less than or equal to 0.01). 122 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Lithium; Bone marrow; Stimulants; Dosage; Toxicity; Neutrophils; Lymphocytes; Urine; Specific gravity; Adverse effects Abstract: Lithium carbonate administration to healthy cats was evaluated in 2 controlled studies (a dose-response study and a bone marrow evaluation study) to determine the effectiveness of lithium as a bone marrow stimulant. Lithium carbonate was administrated at dosage ranging from 300 to 1,050 mg/m2 of body surface/d. Complete blood count, serum lithium concentration determination, serum biochemical analysis, urinalysis, and bone marrow aspiration and biopsy were periodically performed. Serum lithium concentration > 2 mEq/L was associated with significant decrease in numbers of circulating segmented neutrophils (< 1,200 cells/microliter; P < 0.01) and lymphocytes (< 1,300 cells/microliter; P < 0.0001), as well as significant (P < 0.05) decrease in urine specific gravity. Bone marrow evaluation revealed apparent maturation arrest of the neutrophil cell line. Coincident with the changes in laboratory values, the lithium-treated cats became ill. Changes in behavior and vocalization were seen, followed by anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea. In later stages of intoxication, cats became hyperexcitable and manifested coarse muscular tremors. It was concluded that lithium carbonate does not have potential value as a bone marrow stimulant and is toxic to cats at serum concentration > 2 mEq/L. 127 NAL Call.

American journal of veterinary research v. 53 (10): p. 1797-1801; 1992 Oct. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Diabetes mellitus; Blood sugar; Monitoring; Blood proteins Abstract: Fructosamine, a glycated serum protein, was evaluated as an index of glycemic control in normal and diabetic cats. Fructosamine was determined manually by use of a modification of an automated method. The within-run precision was 2.4 to 3.2%, and the day-to-day precision was 2.7 to 3.1%. Fructosamine was found to be stable in serum samples stored for 1 week at 4 degrees C and for 2 weeks at -20 degrees C. The reference range for serum fructosamine concentration in 31 clinically normal colony cats was 2.19 to 3.47 mmol/L (mean, 2.83 +/- 0.32 mmol/L). In 27 samples from 16 cats with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, the range for fructosamine concentration was 3.04 to 8.83 mmol/L (mean, 5.93 +/- 1.35 mmol/L). Fructosamine concentration was directly and highly correlated to blood glucose concentration. Fructosamine concentration also remained high in consort with increased blood glucose concentration in cats with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus over extended periods. It is concluded that measurement of serum fructosamine concentration can be a valuable adjunct to blood glucose monitoring to evaluate glycemic control in diabetic cats. The question of whether fructosamine can replace glucose for monitoring control of diabetes mellitus requires further study. 147 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Angelica archangelica; Roots; Neuroleptics; Dogs; Cats; Hamsters; Rats; Screening; Central nervous system; Effects Abstract: Xanthotoxol (XT), 8-hydroxypsoralen, exhibited dose-graded sedative activity in dogs, cats, rats, mice and hamsters. At doses of 5-20 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.) in cats and 3-100 mg/kg orally (p.o.) in dogs, XT blocked predatory mouse/rat killing behavior. In mice, XT (10-300 mg/kg i.p.) exhibited a dose-dependent reduction in locomotor activity but was less potent in this regard than reference diazepam (10-100 mg/kg i.p.). XT in mice (0.1-10.0 mg/kg i.p.) and in hamsters (0.1-10.0 mg/kg p.o.) antagonized amphetamine-induced hypermobility but was less potent than diazepam. XT elevated the electrical threshold in foot-shock-induced fighting behavior in rats. XT (0.1-30.0 mg/kg p.o.) potentiated pentobarbital-induced narcosis in hamsters at otherwise subeffective doses of pentobarbital. Conditioned avoidance responses in rats were not significantly altered with 1-3 mg/kg i.p. and 30-100 mg/kg p.o. doses of XT but 300 mg/kg p.o. blocked both conditioned and unconditioned response. Doses of 100-1000 mg/kg i.p. of XT in mice were used to study 48-h acute toxicity of XT and its LD50 was estimated to be 468 mg/kg. Doses of 10, 40 and 80 mg/kg p.o. were used to study the chronic toxicity of XT in rats for 6 months and no side effects or abnormalities in reproductive activity or endocrine integrity were noted. The F1 generation of rats from 6-month XT-treated parents were free of teratogenic effects. 148 NAL Call. No.: SF411.A57 Experimental analysis of human-cat interactions during first encounters.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Ovarian cysts; Pyometra; Inflammation; Female infertility; Ovaries; Histopathology; Environmental factors; Estrogens; Progesterone; Prolactin; Blood serum Abstract: Forty-four female American Shorthair cats with inflammatory uterine disease or infertility were evaluated. Data collected included age, month of diagnosis, housing, reproductive history, results of bacteriologic culture of uterine specimens, serum concentrations of estrogen, progesterone, and prolactin and histopathologic features of the ovaries and uterus. Histologically, the ovaries of 19 cats were dominated by active or cystic follicles, whereas 25 cats had luteal-phase ovaries. Of the 25 cats with active corpora lutea, 20 had either recently weaned litters (n = 11) without subsequent exposure to a male cat, or had been housed individually for lengthy periods (n = 9). The finding of active corpora lutea under these circumstances indicates that in queens, ovulation may occur by mechanisms not involving coitus. Prominent, active corpora lutea on the ovaries were associated with adenomatotic proliferative changes in the superficial and glandular epithelium of the uterus and with myometrial hyperplasia, compared with the uterus of cats with follicular ovaries (P < 0.01). Serum progesterone concentration greater than or equal to 1.87 ng/ml was consistently associated with luteal-phase ovaries. Serum progesterone values less than or equal to 0.15 ng/ml were consistently associated with follicular-phase ovaries. Escherichia coli was the organism most commonly isolated from uterine contents. 187 NAL Call. No.: SF601.V523 Host response to vaccination. Dhein, C.R.; Gorham, J.R. Philadelphia, Pa. : W.B.

Language: English Descriptors: Felis rufus; Urine; Chemical composition; Volatile compounds; Repellents; Plant protection; Pest control Abstract: Bobcat (Lynx rufus) urine reduces scent-marking activity of woodchucks (Marmota monax) and feeding activity of snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) and deer (Odocoileus virginianus, O. hemionus). In order to identify the semiochemicals responsible for these behavior modifications, a dichloromethane extract of the bobcat urine was analyzed by GC-MS. Among the known compounds identified in the extract are phenol, indole, dimethyl sulfone, and 3-mercapto-3-methylbutanol. Compounds for which spectroscopic data are presented for the first time include one sulfide, two disulfides, and two trisulfides. The sulfur compounds are derived from an amino acid, S-(1,1-dimethyl-3-hydroxypropyl)cysteine ("felinine"), which was identified several years ago in the urine of the domestic cat (Felis domesticus). 205 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Estrus Abstract: The development of the nervous system can be studied only if the age of the embryo is exactly known. Since it is difficult to control reproduction in female cats, we tried to time fertilization very precisely to within one hour by using either artificial insemination, or by mating females in oestrus induced by the light programming. In one trial, this programming was associated with male or female stimuli according to the work of McClintock (1971, 1978, 1984) and Preti et al. (1986). 210 NAL Call.

Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Haemophilus; New species; Respiratory system; Respiratory diseases; Isolation; Characterization; Case reports Abstract: A gram-negative coccobacillus was isolated from the lower respiratory tract of a cat with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The isolate required CO2 and V factor for growth and was initially identified as Haemophilus paraphrophilus on the basis of its nutritional requirements, colony morphology, and some biochemical tests. Because of the host specificity of Haemophilus species and discrepancies in catalase, oxidase, and hemolytic activities, additional testing was done. Extensive biochemical testing, G+C content, and DNA reassociation studies indicated that the organism was distinct from other Haemophilus species. Therefore, the organism was identified as a previously unrecognized Haemophilus species and was tentatively named "Haemophilus felis." Bacteria identical to the original isolate were isolated from the nasopharynxes of 6 of 28 apparently normal cats, indicating that H. felis or H. felis-like organisms may be common members of the feline upper respiratory tract flora. 220 NAL Call.

Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Maternal behavior Abstract: The domestic cat, Felis silvestris catus, exhibits several different forms of maternal behaviour, including solitary and communal care of offspring. Domestic cats, along with wild felid relatives, use covert nest sites in which to rear their young; multiple nest sites are used over the pre- weaning period. The presence of different maternal styles allows an examination of the functions of nest-moving. Two groups of semi-feral cats, living in a large natural outdoor enclosure, were studied. Communal litters occupied twice as many nests as solitary litters over the first 6 weeks after birth. Kittens in communal litters also left the nest approximately 10 days earlier than kittens in solitary litters. After testing overall litter size with the number of nests occupied, the data showed little evidence that fouling of nests through an accumulation of elimination products, ectoparasites and food waste was responsible for increased moves. A more likely explanation is that frequent nest moves are employed to maintain nest covertness in the presence of possible predators and infanticide by conspecifics. Multiple carers may be better able to move nests efficiently and are therefore freed from the physical constraints affecting solitary mothers. Nest disturbance by several conspecific carers may be part of the explanation for nest moves, but probably does not account for the differences seen. 230 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Leukemia; Viruses; Cell culture; Nucleotide sequences; Amino acid sequences; Genes Abstract: Feline leukaemia viruses (FeLVs) are classified into subgroups A, B and C by their use of different host cell receptors on feline cells, a phenotype which is determined by the viral envelope. FeLV-A is the ubiquitous, highly infectious form of FeLV, and FeLV-C isolates are rare variants which are invariably isolated along with FeLV-A. The FeLV-C isolates share the capacity to induce acute non-regenerative anaemia and the prototype, FeLV-C/Sarma, has strongly age-restricted infectivity for cats. The FeLV-C/sarma env sequence is closely related to that of common, weakly pathogenic FeLV-A isolates. We now show by construction of chimeric viruses that the receptor specificity of FeLV-A/Glasgow-1 virus can be converted to that of FeLV-C by exchange of a single env variable domain, Vr1, which differs by a three codon deletion and nine adjacent substitutions. Attempts to dissect this region further by directed mutagenesis resulted in disabled proviruses. Sequence analysis of independent natural FeLV-C isolates showed that they have unique Vr1 sequences which are distinct from the conserved FeLV-A pattern. The chimeric viruses which acquired the host range and subgroup properties of FeLV- C retained certain FeLV-A-like properties in that they were non-cytopathogenic in 3201 B feline T cells and readily induced viraemia in weanling animals. They also induced a profound anaemia in neonates which had a more prolonged course than that induced by FeLV-C/Sarma and which was macrocytic rather than non-regenerative in nature. Although receptor specificity and a major determinant of pathogenicity segregate with Vr1, it appears that sequences elsewhere in the genome influence infectivity and pathogenicity independently of the subgroup phenotype. 290 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cat; Viruses; Immunological diseases; Pathogenesis; Isolation; Culture techniques; Serology Abstract: Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV; formerly, feline T-lymphotropic lentivirus) is a typical lentivirus resembling human and simian immunodeficiency viruses in morphologic features, protein structure, and reverse transcriptase enzyme. It is antigenically dissimilar, however. The virus is tropic for primary and permanent feline T-lymphoblastoid cells and Crandell feline kidney cells. The virus did not grow in other permanent feline non-lymphoblastoid cells that were tested or in lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells from man, dogs, mice, and sheep. During short term inoculation studies in cats, the feline immunodeficiency-like syndrome found in nature was not experimentally induced, but a distinct primary phase of infection was observed. Fever and neutropenia were observed 4 to 5 weeks after inoculation; fever lasted several days, and neutropenia persisted from 1 to 9 weeks. Generalized lymphadenopathy that persisted for 2 to 9 months appeared at the same time. Antibodies to FIV appeared 2 weeks after inoculation and then plateaued. Virus was reisolated from the blood of all infected cats within 4 to 5 weeks after inoculation and persisted indefinitely in the face of humoral antibody response. Virus was recovered from blood, plasma, CSF and saliva, but not from colostrum or milk. Contact transmission was achieved slowly in one colony of naturally infected cats, but not between experimentally infected and susceptible specific-pathogen-free cats kept together for periods aslong as 4 to 14 months. The infection was transmitted readily, however, by parenteral inoculation with blood, plasma, or infective cell culture fluids. In utero and lactogenic transmission were not observed in kittens born to naturally or experimentally infected queens. Lymphadenopathy observed during the initial stage of FIV infection was ascribed to lymphoid hyperplasia and follicular dysplasia. A myeloproliferative disorder was observed in 1 cat with experimentally induced infection. 291 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: North America; Europe; Africa; Feline peritonitis virus; Epizootiology; Age; Cheetah Abstract: The extent and progression of exposure to feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) virus in the cheetah, Acinonyx jubatus, was monitored by a world-wide serological survey with indirect fluorescent antibody titers to coronavirus. The indirect fluorescent antibody assay was validated by Western blots, which showed that all indirect fluorescent antibody-positive cheetah sera detected both domestic cat and cheetah coronavirus structural proteins. There was a poor correlation between indirect fluorescent antibody results and the presence of coronaviruslike particles in cheetah feces, suggesting that electron microscopic detection of shed particles may not be an easily interpreted diagnostic parameter for FIP disease. Low, but verifiable (by Western blots [immunoblots]) antibody titers against coronavirus were detected in eight free-ranging cheetahs from east Africa as well as from captive cheetahs throughout the world. Of 20 North American cheetah facilities screened, 9 had cheetahs with measurable antibodies to feline coronavirus. Five facilities showed patterns of an ongoing epizootic. Retrospective FIP virus titers of an FIP outbreak in a cheetah-breeding facility in Oregon were monitored over a 5-year period and are interpreted here in terms of clinical disease progression. During that outbreak the morbidity was over 90% and the mortality was 60%, far greater than any previously reported epizootic of FIP in any cat species. Age of infection was a significant risk factor in this epizootic, with infants (less than 3 months old) displaying significantly higher risk for mortality than subadults or adults. Based upon these observations, empirical generalizations are drawn which address epidemiologic concerns for cheetahs in the context of this lethal infectious agent. 301 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Renal function; Glomerular filtration rate; Scintigraphy; Technetium; Inulin; Creatinine; Kidney diseases Abstract: The nuclear imaging technique known as quantitative renal scintigraphy was validated as a means to assess the kidney function of cats. Renal function tests were performed in 6 healthy cats and 3 cats with clinical manifestations of kidney failure. In addition, the nephrotoxic drugs, gentamicin sulfate, or amphotericin B were used in an attempt to induce renal failure in 4 cats. Using linear regression analysis, equations were derived to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) on the basis of the renal percent uptake of 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA). One-way ANOVA and Student's t test were used to evaluate treatment effects on clearances of inulin and creatinine, percent uptake of 99-Tc-DTPA, and serum creatinine concentrations. The results show that the percent uptake of 99mTc-DTPA by the kidneys correlated well with the GFR obtained through the clearance of inulin. Thus, it was concluded that quantitative renal scintigraphy, using 99mTc-DTPA as a marker of kidney function, is an adequate technique to estimate the kidney function of healthy cats and cats with functional renal impairment. The best estimate of the GFR of cats, using the percentage dose of 99mTc-DTPA, was obtained on the 1- to 3-minute postinjection interval of the marker, using data that was background-subtracted, but not corrected for tissue absorption of gamma rays or binding of 99mTc-DTPA to plasma proteins. There was no significant difference in the mean inulin clearance, creatinine clearance, or percent uptake of 99mTc-DTPA between the 3 treatment groups of this study. Therefore, it was concluded that neither gentamicin nor amphotericin B are useful drugs in eliciting losses of feline kidney function that may be measurable through the procedures used in this study. Contrary to all other GFR studies in the cat, this study did not use any form of pharmacologic restraint. Therefore, the findings from this study are expected to reflect accurately the true GFR healthy n 311 NAL Call.

Schaumburg, Ill. : American Veterinary Medical Association; 1992 Mar. American journal of veterinary research v. 53 (3): p. 402-405; 1992 Mar. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Potassium; Nutrient deficiencies; Acidification; Taurine; Cardiomyopathy; Embolism Abstract: Although low plasma taurine concentrations have been associated with congestive cardiomyopathy in cats, the cause of taurine depletion in cats consuming adequate quantities of taurine is unknown. Taurine depletion and cardiovascular disease (cardiomyopathy and thromboembolism) developed unexpectedly in 3 of 6 healthy adult cats during a potassium-depletion study. Plasma taurine concentration decreased significantly (P < 0.05) and rapidly over an 8-week period (from 98 to 36 nmol/ml) in 6 cats that consumed a potassium-deficient diet (0.20% potassium, dry matter basis) that was acidified with 0.8% ammonium chloride, despite containing dietary taurine concentrations (0.12% dry matter basis) in excess of amounts currently recommended. Taurine concentrations were significantly lower in cats fed the acidified diet than in 6 cats fed a potassium-deficient diet that was not acidified (36 nmol/ml vs 75 nmol/ml) after 8 weeks. In addition, plasma taurine concentrations did not decrease over a 6-month period in 8 cats that were fed a potassium-replete diet with acidifier. Plasma taurine concentrations were lowest in 3 cats that died of cardiovascular disease in the group receiving potassium-deficient, acidified diets. These data indicated an association between taurine and potassium balance in cats and suggested that development of taurine depletion and cardiovascular disease may be linked to concurrent potassium depletion. 362 NAL Call.

London : Royal Society of Medicine Services; 1990 Apr. Laboratory animals v. 24 (2): p. 142-146; 1990 Apr. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Laboratory animals; Local anesthetics; Local anesthesia; Lidocaine; Intravenous injection; Ointments Abstract: An assessment was made of the effects of topical application of a eutectic mixture of local anaesthetics (EMLA cream) in a number of species of laboratory animals. Application of EMLA cream enabled percutaneous insertion of catheters into the cephalic vein in dogs and cats and the marginal ear vein in rabbits without causing any detectable pain or discomfort. Application to the tail in rats prior to percutaneous cannulation of the lateral tail vein did not produce a significant reduction in the behavioural responses to venepuncture. EMLA cream represents a useful refinement of current techniques for intravenous injection in some species, and is especially valuable when the procedure is to be undertaken by an inexperienced operator. 379 NAL Call.

Schaumburg, Ill. : American Veterinary Medical Association; 1991 Nov. American journal of veterinary research v. 52 (11): p. 1924-1927; 1991 Nov. Includes references. Language: English Descriptors: Cats; Feline oncovirus; Bone marrow cells; Fibroblasts; Suppression; Aplasia Abstract: Bone marrow fibroblast colony-forming units (CFU-F) were evaluated in cats experimentally infected with different isolates of FeLV. Cats infected with the Kawakami-Theilen isolate of FeLV (FeLV-KT) had progressive decrease in the number of CFU-F at 2, 4, and 6 weeks after infection. The number of CFU-F in FeLV-KT-infected cats ranged from 38 to 70% of the preinoculation CFU-F value. Of 3 cats with FeLV-KT-induced suppression of CFU-F, 2 developed fatal nonregenerative anemia. Cats infected with the Rickard isolate of FeLV (FeLV-R) had more moderate decrease in the number of CFU-F at 2, 4, and 6 weeks after infection. The number of CFU-F in FeLV-R-infected cats ranged from 62 to 82% of the preinoculation CFU-F value. The FeLV-R-infected cats did not become anemic. 381 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Diet; Vitamin d; Pregnancy; Calcium; Homeostasis; Neonates Abstract: Extract: We assessed whether modification of vitamin D nutritional status during the last trimester of pregnancy affects maternal and neonatal calcium homeostasis. At the end of the first trimester, 40 pregnant women were randomly assigned to either of two groups, and blood taken to assess the basal values of Ca, Pi, Mg, iPTH, 25-OHD, and 1,25(OH)2D. From the sixth month on, group 1 (+D) received 1000 IU vitamin D3 daily; group 2 (-D) served as control. At the time of delivery, maternal serum 25-OHD was higher in the +D group (P less than 0.0005). Ca, Pi, iPTH, and 1,25(OH)2D were not affected. At term, venous cord 25-OHD levels were also higher in the +D group (P less than 0.0005), and 1,25(OH)2D levels slightly lower (P less than 0.05), but neither Ca, Pi, nor iPTH differed between the two groups. Serum CaT dropped significantly (P less than 0.002) at 4 days of age in the infants from both groups, although to a lesser extent in these from the +D group (P less than 0.05). Circulating iPTH increased in both groups. Serum 25-OHD remained low in the -D group, and dropped slightly in the +D group; 1,25(OH)2D remained stable during the first 4 days of life in the -D group, and increased in the +D group (P less than 0.001). Our data demonstrate the importance of providing adequate maternal vitamin D stores to ensure better perinatal handling of calcium. This is of particular importance for populations at risk for hypovitaminosis D.(author) 390 NAL Call. No.: SF433.W36 1992 The Waltham book of dog and cat behaviour., 1st ed.. Thorne, C.
