The initial management of the traumatized cat can be a challenging, but rewarding, task for the veterinarian. The pathophysiology of shock, its clinical presentation, and basic elements of treatment are universal to all species. Special care must be taken when dealing with injured cats, due to their increased susceptibility to stress and tendency toward severe hypothermia in shock. The development of pulmonary edema in response to excessive fluid loads, especially in the face of pulmonary injury, must be borne in mind when establishing treatment regimens. The keys to successful management of the traumatized cat lie in correct assessment of the extent and nature of injuries, rapid institution of rational therapy, and constant re-evaluation of the animal's response throughout the post-traumatic period.
