Question: what does it mean when a cat throws a clot?
Answer: (also called “Saddle Thrombus”) FATE (Feline Aortic Thromboembolism) is a dramatic and painful condition with serious implications. It comes on suddenly and appears to paralyze the cat, causing one or both rear legs to become useless and even noticeably cold. The cat will hyperventilate and cry out with extreme pain.
