Abstract

A queen was presented with history of three live kittens delivered before 30 hours and then labor ceased. Primary partial uterine inertia was identified as cause of dystocia, which was successfully treated with ecbolic therapy, which included injections of Oxytocin and Calcium gluconate in dextrose normal saline intravenously. One live kitten and a dead kitten were delivered spontaneously per-vaginally. The queen cat recovered without any complications following the therapy.
