    Snippet: Two days later, the patient re-presented to the referring veterinarian with persistent diarrhoea and weight loss (100 g). On physical examination, all vital parameters were within normal limits, except for rectal temperature, which was still slightly raised (39.7º C). The cat was normally hydrated. Haematology and biochemistry revealed moderate non-regenerative anaemia (20.3%; reference interval [RI] 24-45%) and hyperglobulinaemia (5.4 g/dl; RI .....
    Document: Two days later, the patient re-presented to the referring veterinarian with persistent diarrhoea and weight loss (100 g). On physical examination, all vital parameters were within normal limits, except for rectal temperature, which was still slightly raised (39.7º C). The cat was normally hydrated. Haematology and biochemistry revealed moderate non-regenerative anaemia (20.3%; reference interval [RI] 24-45%) and hyperglobulinaemia (5.4 g/dl; RI 2.8-5.1) with an albumin/globulin ratio of 0.44. The anaemia was likely due to chronic disease or gastrointestinal blood loss, whereas the hyperglobulinaemia and low A/G ratio were most likely explained by an inflammatory or infectious process. Given that the patient was cardiovascularly stable, the treatment course was extended further.
