    Document: Disclosures: No disclosures to report. Hypertension in diabetic humans is common (prevalence 40-80%) and related with hyperglycemia, duration of the disease and several complications. In diabetic cats, previous studies shown that hypertension is not present or it is uncommon. The aims of this study were to determine prevalence of hypertension in feline diabetes mellitus (DM) and its potential relation with different parameters (age, body condition score (BCS), BCS previous to diagnosis, sex, glycemic control, time since diagnosis, concurrent diseases, chronic corticoid treatments, diabetic neuropathy and remission). Thirty diabetic cats were assessed for the first time at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital Complutense between January 2013 and April 2016. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was measured using Doppler methodology. Hypertension was defined as ≥160 mm Hg, and subclassified following the ACVIM consensus and the ISFM guidelines. BCS was categorized from 1 to 9, being 5 the ideal weight. No cat was receiving anti-hypertensive treatment.
