| Abstract: | A 6-year-old, castrated male shorthair was evaluated for chylous effusion in the thorax and abdomen. An underlying disease process was not determined. The cat developed hyponatremia and hyperkalemia, which was attributed to the mechanical drainage of pleural fluid and to the decreased urinary excretion of potassium. |
