When the abdominal region was gently palpated, hepatomegaly have been found (confirmed by abdominal radiographic examination) and the cat exhibit an abdominal pain. On hematological examination, the complete blood count reveal slightly increasing of leucocyte especially stab neutrophil (neutrophilia). The liver enzymes (SGOT, SGPT), and bilirubin levels were all above the normal range.
