751.0. "Broken Red Blood Cells?" by SPESHR::MCGREAL () Wed Apr 27 1994 15:12


       Woofie, my 10.5 year old tabby went to the vet two weeks ago for
       his annual checkup.  I had a blood test done to make sure he
       could handle the anesthesia for his dentistry (teeth cleaning). 
       It came back showing evidence of "broken red blood cells".  He is
       going for another blood test tomorrow.  

       Can anyone give me any information about this?  The vet isn't too
       worried about this because otherwise he is in fine shape, but we
       decided to do another test to make sure.  He's had a blood test
       every year for several years and this is the first time anything
       unusual has come up.  Could this be a symptom of getting older?

                                                Thanks for any info,

                                                        Jane.
