Abstract :A 5-year-old black and white pregnant cat was admitted to our clinic with bloody discharge from the vagina with no evidence of labor. An exploratory laparotomy was performed and a vaginal rupture was revealed. One of the kittens was totally in the abdominal cavity while the other was partially so. In this case, several options for diagnosis and treatment are discussed with special emphasis on dystocia.Keywords : cat, dystocia, postrenal azotemia, vaginal rupture
