Body Morphometry of Newborn Cats

Abstract

This study aimed to provide the body morphometric data of neonatal cats. A total of 48 neonatal cats (35 stillbirths and 13 live births) from the delivery of 13 queens were included for analysis. In all newborns, macromorphometric data were obtained, including body weight, total body length, crown-rump length, circumference of eye, ear length, abdominal length, biparietal diameter, thoracic length, caudal length, and size of the thoracic and pelvic limbs.
