Learn about Pandora Syndrome and the roles of metabolism and stress in feline LUTD.

Lower urinary tract disease (LUTD) is common in cats. In previous decades, the focus of study has been on causes and management of crystalluria, but more recently, it has become clear that most LUTD cases are idiopathic and the bladder may be the victim rather than the initiator of the clinical signs. This presentation will take a look at Pandora Syndrome and the roles of metabolism and stress in feline LUTD.
