A 12-year-old NM DSH cat was presented for evaluation of inappetence for 3 days. Physical examination showed severe dental disease, gallop arrhythmia, and dull mentation. Abnormalities on serum biochemistry were hyperglycemia (270), elevated BUN (39) and ALT (473) activity, and severely elevated total protein (9.6) and globulins (6.8). Radiographs revealed hepatomegaly and a gas filled colon and small intestine.
