Snippet: Enrolled cats had a median age of 12 years (range 4-19 years) and there were 11 males and 9 females. Five out of 20 (25%), 5/20 (25%) and 10/20 (50%) were staged as IRIS Stage 2, 3, and 4 CKD, respectively.Hyperammonemia was documented in 5/20 (25%) of cats.There was a significant moderate positive correlation between BUN and ammonia (r = 0.5478, p = 0.013) but no correlation between ammonia and Cr (r = 0.4306, p = 0.058) or ammonia and B12 (r = .....

There was no difference between mean ammonia levels between the IRIS Stages (2, 3 and 4) (p = 0.162). Hyperammonemic cats did not appear to have overt neurologic signs and did not have urinary tract infections with urease producing bacteria.
