Özet
Serum biochemistry and hematological values are used to determine the outcome of diseases in both animals and humans. In the presented scientific report, hematological and biochemical findings were defined in the cat, which was shaped as three mummified fetuses. A 12-month-old cat, which was mated 38 days ago, was brought to the Kastamonu University Veterinary Faculty Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic with complaints of vomiting, anorexia, and polydipsia. After the preliminary clinical examination, it was observed in the ultrasonographic examination that the fetus had no heartbeat and the hyperechoic areas increased. The mummified fetus was diagnosed. Fetal mummification is occasional in cats and has been reported. Blood samples were taken for serum biochemistry and hematological analysis. Considering that serum biochemistry and hematological analyzes are important in cases of mummified fetuses in cats, this case report is presented. However, both hematological and biochemical parameters were within the reference ranges. Ovariohysterectomy was performed under general anesthesia. Seven days after the surgery, the wound from the operation was completely healed.
