description: Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD) is a disease of the cat's urinary tract in the form of blockage of the lower urinary tract consisting of the urinary bladder (VU) to the urethra. FLUTD includes several conditions, Urinary Tract Infections (UTI), urolithiasis, and cystitis. The purpose of writing this article is to find out that providing commercial dry food has a high level of risk for the incidence of FLUTD in cats, so it is important to dissect the feed content as an effort to diagnose, provide therapy and prevent cases of FLUTD in cats. The cat case is a male Persian mix cat named Boy, 2 years old with a body weight of 4 kg, has difficulty urinating, is often seen urinating carelessly, and has oliguria. The results of the physical examination of the urine showed that the urine was dark yellow in color with the smell of urine without any foam. In the chemical examination of the urine the results showed leukocytes (+3), nitrites (+), urobilinogen (+1), protein (+2), ketones (+1), microalbumin (+3), and creatinine (+1), followed by urine sedimentation examination which showed the presence of struvite crystals. On the Complete Blood Count (CBC) examination, the results showed leukopenia, granulocytopenia and thrombocytopenia, while on the ultranosonography (USG) examination, thickening of the VU wall was found accompanied by an accumulation of crystals. The therapy given in cat cases is the antibiotic Enrofloxacin, anti-inflammatory Methylprednisolone, Kejibeling, ICare (Pets Urinary Tract & Kidney Support Supplement), and replacement of Royal Canin Urinary S/O wet food feed. The results of the urine sediment evaluation did not show the presence of struvite crystals, while the results of the CBC evaluation showed that the leukocyte parameters in the case of the cat had returned to the normal range and still experienced granulocytopenia and thrombocytopenia.

type: item
description: Pigs have an important role in the socio-cultural status of the people in Bali and providing nutrition needed for the body. This study aims to determine the differences of quality of pork produced at Pesanggaran Slaughterhouses, Abatoars in Badung and Tabanan. Evaluation of meat quality was carried out subjectively including organoleptic tests assessed by 10 panelists and objective tests which included tests for color, odor/aroma, consistency, texture, pH, water holding capacity, and water content. The sample used in this study was pork on the latissimus dorsi as much as 125 g of each pigs slaughtered. The data obtained in this study were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. The Pesanggaran Slaughterhouse showed good pork quality results, it's just that in the water holding capacity test the results were above normal. The abatoars in Badung Regency also have good pork quality, but the panelists judged the meat to have a rough texture and water holding capacity above normal. The abatoars in Tabanan Regency showed good pork quality results, only the smell/aroma of the meat was assessed by the panelists not smelling of fresh meat and similar to other places the water holding capacity was higher than normal. So it can be concluded that the quality of the meat from the three places has no significant difference and have good quality meat and suitable for human consumption. It is recommended to carry out further research on what causes the quality of the meat to differ, especially from stunning and cutting.

type: item
description: Scabies is a disease caused by mites of the family Sarcoptidae including the genera Sarcoptes and Notoedres. In addition, many endoparasitic infections in cats have been reported, one of which is Toxocariasis caused by Toxocara sp worms, also known as gilig worms. The purpose of writing this article is to provide information on methods of diagnosis, treatment, and therapeutic evaluation of scabies accompanied by Toxocara sp endoparasitic infection. A local cat named Bolang aged 2 years with a body weight of 2.6 kg was examined with complaints of itching and diarrhoea. Alopecia, crusts, hyperkeratosis, erythema and scale were observed on the ears, nape, legs and face with a pruritus level of 7/10. Skin scrapings were performed and microscopically identified as Sarcoptes scabiei and Notoedres cati. The cat had diarrhoea and was microscopically found to have Toxocara cati infection. Based on the history, clinical signs and supporting examination, the case animal was diagnosed with scabies accompanied by toxocariasis with a prognosis of fausta. Causative therapy for scabies cases was given ivermectin injection 0.2 mg/kg BW. Causative therapy for toxocariasis cases was given pyrantel pamoate 5 mg/kg BW orally. As symptomatic therapy, Bolang cats with pruritus 7/10 were given diphenhydramine HCl at a dose of 1 mg/kg BW intramuscularly, followed by oral administration of diphenhydramine HCl at a dose of 4 mg/kg BW three times a day, for 5 days. Supportive therapy was given Mei Fah Tunghai fish oil and bathed using sulfur soap. On day 14 the case cat showed very good changes, namely no itching, crusts had disappeared and hair had grown on the head, ears and upper neck area and normal cat feces consistency. It is recommended that the owner cage and pay attention to the cat's condition to prevent re-infection.

EHRLICHIOSIS IN ONE YEARS OLD MALE DOMESTIC CROSSBREED DOG
type: item
description: Ehrlichiosis is a disease in dogs caused by the Ehrlichia sp bacteria and attacks all ages and breeds. Ehrlichia sp. is an obligate intracellular bacterium. The purpose of writing this case report is to discuss the incidence of ehrlichiosis in domestic crossbreed dogs. The animal case is a domestic crossbreed dog, male, named Beleki, one year old with a body weight of 10.9 kg examined at the Veterinary Internal Medicine Laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Udayana University with complaints that the dog experienced itching, hair loss, and tick infestation. The results of a clinical examination of the skin found many Riphicephalus sanguineus ticks spread from the neck to the back, there were crusts and small wounds caused by tick bites and the oral mucosa looked pale. Routine hematological examination showed that the dog had hypochromic microcytic anemia, leukopenia, lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia. On blood smear examination, intracytoplasmic inclusions (morula) were found in neutrophils. Serological examination using an antibody test kit showed positive results for Ehrlichia sp., so the dog was diagnosed as suffering from ehrlichiosis. Treatment is carried out by subcutaneous administration of ivermectin (0.3 mg/kg BW), and the antibiotic Doxycycline at a dose of 10 mg/kg BW every 24 hours orally (PO) given for 28 days. Supportive therapy to treat anemia uses Sangobion® hematopoietic supplementation one capsule per day PO for 10 days. The dog case experienced a significant decline in condition on the ninth day and was declared dead on the 12th day. Death occurs due to disorders of the digestive system and is exacerbated by thrombocytopenia, leukopenia and anemia. It is best to immediately carry out an early examination of dogs that have tick infestations on their bodies and clean the rearing environment using disinfectant to avoid transmission of ticks to dogs.
