Özet
Objective This study aimed to investigate the effect of pregnancy status on corneal temperature (CT) and rectal temperature (RT) in female cats. Animals studied Fifteen pregnant and fifteen anoestrus cats were included in this study. Procedures Pregnant cats had gestation periods ranging from 20 to 45 days, and vaginal smears were taken to assess the oestrous cycles of anoestrus cats. CT was measured using a FLIR E90 thermal camera, while RT was measured with a digital thermometer. Statistical analysis was conducted to evaluate temperature differences between the two groups. Results Anoestrus cats (38.4 ± 0.55°C) had a significantly higher RT compared to pregnant cats (37.89 ± 0.58°C) (p = 0.02). The right (R) CT of anoestrus cats (36.58 ± 1.19°C) and pregnant cats (36.55 ± 1.41°C) did not differ statistically (p > 0.05). Similarly, no significant difference was observed in the left (L) CT between …
