Follow-up
Unfortunately the abdominal fluid recurred quickly again in this case. Diuretics were administered to help reduce the volume of the free abdominal fluid. Response to diuretics was suboptimal and a significant quantity of abdominal fluid was detected. Occasional vomiting was reported but appetite was now significantly reduced and weight loss was noticeable. The cat was euthanized 12 weeks post-operatively.
