MDR Bacterial History (confirmed by lab reports): Klebsiella spp. (urine, Pathlab, 7 Jul 2025) · Enterobacter cloacae (urine, UPM + Jawharicat, Jul 2025) · Pseudomonas aeruginosa + E. coli (blood culture, UPM, 17 Jul 2025) · Staphylococcus aureus (nasal swab, Jawharicat, 22 Jul 2025) · Enterococcus faecium (urine, Jawharicat 2 Aug + AMC 2 Oct 2025) · Enterococcus sp. (bladder tissue, FINN Pathologists UK, Oct 2025 — extremely resistant) · Pseudomonas aeruginosa (urine, Dec 2025 + Mar 2026 — persistent). All antibiotic decisions must be guided by current culture and sensitivity results.
🫀
Cardiac Risk — ASA III: Pericardial effusion confirmed (Shinzovet, 20 & 30 Sep 2025). Mildly reduced cardiac output (0.43 L/min). Anaesthesia carries elevated risk — dobutamine CRI and fluid restriction (<3 ml/kg/hr) recommended if GA required. Baseline feline SAA2 and Troponin-I required pre-anaesthesia. Follow-up echocardiogram proposed 14 May 2026, 12:00pm — Dr Anthony Leong, Shinzovet (pending confirmation; prior to secretome injection #1 on 15 May PM).
ℹ️
Family History: Barkoba's biological father died of a heart attack aged 5–7 years. Owner has flagged concern of possible inherited cardiac issue across all treating clinics.

🐾 Barkoba Today (Owner's Account — as of May 2026)

💬
This section is written in the owner's own words — a personal account of Barkoba's current condition at home, separate from clinical documentation.

Barkoba is currently at home. Most of the time he sleeps the whole day — but he eats well and drinks well, which is reassuring. His general demeanour looks okay.

One concern I have noticed is that Barkoba drips urine while sleeping. After he has been sleeping for a long time, I find a pool of urine at the spot where he was lying — he does not appear to be aware of it happening. This has been an ongoing observation at home.

Barkoba also urinates very frequently throughout the day — up to 17 times daily. The clump size appears normal each time, so he is producing urine, but the frequency is notably high. This is observed by following Barkoba to the litter box, scooping his litter box, and direct observation of his litter box visits.

Recently, I noticed his eyes had reddish discharge. I brought him to see Dr Amilan (AMC Ophthalmologist) on 25 March 2026. Dr Amilan initially said nothing to worry about — that it was just the iron content causing the red colour in the discharge. However, I asked him to run a test anyway. He agreed and ran a cytology — and the result came back showing Chlamydia.

The eye discharge has been ongoing — to the point where it drops on the floor in multiple spots throughout the day. Despite this, Barkoba does not seem to be in distress. He continues to eat, drink, and rest.

📋
Clinical note — Urinary incontinence + Pollakiuria:
(1) Passive urine leakage during sleep (urinary incontinence) — Barkoba is unaware of the pooling. Consistent with impaired bladder sphincter control from chronic bladder wall inflammation, repeated catheterisations, or structural changes from prolonged urinary disease.

(2) Urination up to 17 times daily (pollakiuria — abnormally frequent urination) — clump size normal each time, so output per void is adequate. High frequency with normal volume is consistent with active bladder irritation from ongoing Pseudomonas UTI, bladder wall inflammation, or urethral sensitivity. Notably, 17 visits/day was also the first warning sign that prompted the initial Nurovet visit on 27 April 2025 — this pattern persists.

Both findings should be formally raised at the next clinical review.
📋
Clinical note — Chlamydophila felis (cytology, AMC, 25 March 2026): Chlamydophila felis is a common cause of chronic conjunctivitis in cats, often presenting with persistent ocular discharge. It can co-exist with FHV-1 (confirmed POSITIVE in Barkoba, Jul 2025). AMC/Antech PCR panel from July 2025 tested Chlamydophila felis — result was NEGATIVE at that time. The cytology finding on 25 March 2026 suggests either a new infection, reactivation, or that bacterial load was below PCR detection threshold in July 2025.

Chlamydophila felis is also a vaccine-preventable pathogen — included in most feline combination vaccines. This finding is relevant to Barkoba's pending vaccination plan once cleared for vaccination.

Lab diagnostic notes (Awalife system): [RTE#>0] common in renal tubular disease, ischaemia, nephrotoxicity and degenerative kidney disease. [SEC#>7] common in urinary system inflammation and bladder puncture sampling.

Vet interpretation and instructions (WhatsApp, Nurovet): Results point more to a urinary issue than a kidney problem. RTE elevation is consistent with normal tissue sloughing during an active UTI — not necessarily indicative of renal disease. Condition is more consistent with cystitis (FIC). Owner advised to ensure Barkoba drinks plenty of water and to minimise stress. Medications to be completed within one week. Blood test recommended to confirm kidney parameters (urea, creatinine) if required. No need to repeat urinalysis unless haematuria returns.

Medications dispensed (confirmed: Invoice INV-6646):

  • Cystopro ×10 — urinary support
  • UTI-OXI ×7 — urinary antibacterial supplement
  • Denzo ×14 — urinary support

Note: Medications dispensed and administered by clinic on 27 April 2025. Home course commenced 28 April 2025. Course to be completed within one week.

Bill: RM 202.50 (Consultation RM 20.00 · Urinalysis RM 70.00 · Medications RM 112.50)

Diagnosis: Suspected urinary tract disease with nephrolithiasis (kidney stone identified on ultrasound). SDMA markedly elevated — Kidney Disease Probable. Haemoconcentration noted on CBC (elevated RBC, HGB, HCT). Stone type not identified — Petsville does not have the equipment for stone typing; per Dr Aishah, urine sample can be sent to an external laboratory (results in approximately 2 weeks), however treatment plan would remain unchanged regardless of stone type.

SDMA — Vcheck (SN: VE20FBITG4733, 06/06/2025 12:36, Operator: PETSVILLE):

🚨
SDMA = Above 100.0 µg/dL · Procedural Control: Valid · Interpretation: Kidney Disease Probable
Reference: ≤14 µg/dL = Normal · 14.1–19.9 µg/dL = Suspected · ≥20 µg/dL = Kidney Disease Probable. Note: SDMA should be interpreted alongside other clinical findings.

Ultrasonography — bladder (30 minutes): Kidney stone identified on ultrasound. Stone type not determinable at Petsville (no specialist equipment). Per Dr Aishah: treatment plan remains unchanged regardless of stone type — Royal Canin Urinary S/O diet, supportive medications, and follow-up ultrasound and blood test.

Lab diagnostic notes: Elevated RBC, HGB and HCT consistent with haemoconcentration (dehydration). SDMA markedly elevated above 100 µg/dL — Kidney Disease Probable, to be interpreted alongside creatinine (1.6 mg/dL — within reference range) and other clinical findings. Amylase mildly elevated (1433 U/L). All other parameters within reference ranges. Analyser alarms: MIC, AG1 flagged on CBC.

Alarming signs — owner monitoring instructions (WhatsApp, Dr Aishah): Seek immediate veterinary attention if any of the following occur: (1) no urination within 24 hours, (2) fresh blood in urine, (3) non-stop vomiting. These are signs of urinary obstruction, which is common in male cats with a history of FLUTD.

Medications dispensed (confirmed: Invoice INV-064574 + medication labels):

  • Azodyl capsule ×8 — kidney supplement (1 capsule SID)
  • Calmurofel capsule ×10 — bladder supplement (1 capsule SID)
  • Clavaseptin 62.5mg ×16 — antibiotic (1 tablet BID)
  • Papain Beazyme tablet ×8 — enzyme / anti-inflammatory (1 tablet SID)
  • Royal Canin Urinary S/O 3.5kg — prescription urinary diet (diet change, immediate)

Note: Per Dr Aishah — medications and Royal Canin Urinary S/O are intended to increase urinary frequency and water intake to facilitate passage of the stone.

Ultrasound settings: B mode, Gen-L probe, 32 Hz, G 49%, depth 60–69mm. Echogenic foci consistent with nephrolithiasis/urolithiasis.

Lab diagnostic notes: Nitrite positive indicating active bacterial involvement. Leukocytes trace — mild inflammation or infection at kidney level per vet annotation. Calcium phosphate crystals present on microscopy — insoluble type, cannot be eliminated through diet modification alone. Urine SG 1.060 indicates highly concentrated urine, increasing crystallisation risk. High ascorbic acid (40 mg/dL) may have interfered with some dipstick readings. pH 6 — vet noted that mixed crystal environment (struvite/oxalate) can occur at this pH.

Lab diagnostic notes: All CBC parameters within normal range — no anaemia, no significant leukocytosis, PLT normal. Kidney panel reassuringly normal: SDMA 12 µg/dL (ref 0–14), creatinine 174 µmol/L (ref 71–212), UPC 0.06 — no significant proteinuria. Per Dr Farouq, kidney has likely started to stabilise or compensate with the stone present. Globulin elevated (57 g/L) — consistent with chronic inflammation or infection. Glucose elevated (12.94 mmol/L) — likely stress hyperglycaemia. Phosphorus low (0.55 mmol/L). Troponin I critically elevated at 0.65 ng/mL — cardiac muscle injury highly suspected. NT-proBNP normal — no cardiac swelling. Urine culture: No growth (Innoquest Lab No. 25-1801854, collected 26 Jun 11:30, reported 28 Jun 12:10). Markedly elevated erythrocytes in urine (>250 ×10⁶/L) confirm significant haematuria despite no visible blood reported — consistent with active urinary tract pathology.

Dr Farouq interpretation (WhatsApp): NT-proBNP is a test to check whether the heart is swelling — for Barkoba, NT-proBNP is normal (Alhamdulillah). Troponin I (fTnI) tests whether the heart muscle itself is injured — Barkoba's troponin reading is high and abnormal. This highly suggests cardiac muscle injury. Blood test otherwise not that bad — kidney parameters have stabilised. Barkoba looks clinically solid. Weight steady at 6.83 kg.

Medications dispensed: None — this was a diagnostic-only visit. No medications prescribed on this date.

Attending vet: Dr Aishah binti Dharmahdi — Petsville Animal Clinic, Cyberjaya

Presenting complaint: At 9:24 AM on 28 June 2025, owner contacted Petsville via WhatsApp to report that Barkoba was attempting to use all litter boxes but producing no urine. This was the first time Barkoba had been observed vocalising — owner suspected urinary obstruction. Owner brought Barkoba to the clinic at 10:19 AM same day. At 3:46 PM, Dr Aishah reported that Barkoba's bladder was the size of a ping-pong ball and turgid. Clinic proceeded with urinary catheterisation.

Diagnosis: Urinary obstruction with markedly distended bladder. Stress hyperglycaemia on pre-catheterisation bloods. Catheter placed successfully. Barkoba warded for monitoring and treatment from 28 June to 3 July 2025.

Catheterised urine appearance (30 June 2025 — urine flush photo): Dark golden/brownish heavily discoloured urine in stainless steel bowl — consistent with haematuria, concentrated urine, and sediment. This photo is from the catheter flush on 30 June 2025, Day 3 of ward stay. (Confirmed — photo forwarded via WhatsApp, 30 Jun 2025)

DateClinical Notes
28 Jun (Day 1)Bladder ping-pong ball size, turgid. Catheter placed 3:46 PM under light anaesthesia. Dark heavily discoloured urine collected. IV drip placed for hydration and to flush bladder sediments. (Source: WhatsApp Dr Aishah 28 Jun ✓)
29 Jun (Day 2)Barkoba grumpy — knocked food out of cage. IV drip bitten and dislodged — replaced. Flushing completed: urine now clear yellowish, no blood. Owner queried sediment lab identification — clinic to attempt urine spin to collect sediment for processing. (Source: WhatsApp PetsvilleVet 29 Jun 12:46 PM ✓)
30 Jun (Day 3)Urine clearing since 29 June. Petsville processed urine sample under microscope — sediment negative. Vet note: continuous flushing likely reduced sediment below detectable level. Microscopy image clear field confirmed. Urine flush photo: dark golden/brownish still visible macroscopically. Urine also spun to collect sediment for particle identification — dark brown/reddish concentrated sediment visible in spun sample. (Source: WhatsApp PetsvilleVet 30 Jun 3:30 PM ✓ · Microscopy image ✓ · Urine flush + spun sediment photos ✓)
1 Jul (Day 4)Blood noticed in urine during flushing — new development after 3 days of clear urine. Vet confirmed: bleeding occurred during flushing with catheter still in place. Attributed to catheter irritation/trauma to urethra and bladder lining after several days — expected complication, not worsening. No signs of serious complications. Catheter removed today. Urethra still inflamed. Monitoring one more night without catheter. Discharge planned for 2 July if Barkoba able to urinate independently with good volume. Owner advised: urine stream may be weak post-discharge as urethral inflammation takes time to resolve — monitor for urinating, eating, acting normally; watch for vomiting or lethargy as signs of toxicity. Infection risk of catheter explained — antibiotics administered throughout ward stay for this reason; maximum catheter duration 4 days. (Source: WhatsApp PetsvilleVet 1 Jul 4:04–5:07 PM ✓)
2 Jul (Day 5) 9:30 AM: Diazepam (muscle relaxant) and antipyretic injection administered.
Fever: Mild fever present — common after catheter removal, attributed to pain and inflammation. Antipyretic injection given (combined with mild pain reliever).
Urine stream: Not smooth — dribbling. Bladder at 1:19 PM a bit softer but still ping-pong ball size. Vet advised against pressing bladder forcefully — risk of bladder rupture if pressed too frequently or forcefully. Awaiting muscle relaxant effect; monitoring bladder size on palpation.
Appetite & stool: Good appetite, solid stools — satisfactory digestion and energy.
Owner visit: 3:00 PM visitation.
Overall assessment: Improving but not ready for discharge. Urinary system needs more healing time. Continuing current medications; will reassess once urination smooth and fever fully settled.
Urine culture no growth — Petsville comment (2 Jul 4:59 PM): Owner shared the 26 June Innoquest urine culture result (Lab No. 25-1801854 — No growth) with Petsville. Petsville noted: despite no growth, leucocytes and erythrocytes in urine were markedly elevated — indicating urinary tract inflammation or infection. Barkoba had already received 14 days of antibiotics prior to the culture being taken — bacteria likely eliminated before culture, producing a false negative. Absence of bacteria on culture date does not exclude prior infection.
(Source: WhatsApp PetsvilleVet 2 Jul 12:13 PM – 4:59 PM ✓)
1–2 Jul (post-catheter)Bladder turgid again. Barkoba feverish. Urine dribbling. Tolfenamic Acid injection administered (antipyretic + anti-inflammatory).
2 JulBladder small and soft on palpation. One puddle of urine in litter box. Fever resolved. General condition improved.
3 Jul (Discharge day) Good news update (PetsvilleVet, 10:54 AM):
1. Bladder no longer turgid — soft and smaller than previous day. Urine flow improving. Very good progress.
2. One urine puddle spotted near litter box — positive sign.
3. Appetite and drinking normal — comfortable and improving.
4. Good signs of recovery — discharged today. Complete all medications at home.

Home monitoring instructions (PetsvilleVet, 10:57 AM):
1. Frequent litter box visits expected in coming days — only 2 days post-catheter, urethra likely still swollen.
2. Urethral swelling causes sensation of needing to urinate frequently even with little output — normal during recovery phase.
3. Key positive signs: still eating, active, not visibly stressed. As long as urinating, eating and acting normally.

2nd catheterisation decision (10:59 AM): Based on clinical signs today, vet assessed good recovery signs — 2nd catheterisation likely not needed. Better for Barkoba to continue monitoring at home where he is more comfortable.

Owner request (9:42 AM): Requested signed referral letter covering 6 June – 3 July, including condition summary, catheterisation details, lab/imaging results, and clinical opinion on next steps. Owner also raised option of proceeding referral before or alongside 2nd catheterisation if needed.
Discharge time: 12:00 PM. Referral letter to UPM issued.

Post-discharge observations (owner, 3 Jul afternoon): Upon arriving home, Barkoba was wobbly and having difficulty drinking. He then drank water continuously and excessively — appearing extremely thirsty (polydipsia). Owner assessed this as abnormal behaviour, not consistent with normal post-discharge recovery. At 2:37 PM, Barkoba vomited. Owner notified Petsville — clinic advised to monitor first. (Source: WhatsApp PetsvilleVet 3 Jul 9:42 AM – 10:59 AM ✓ · Post-discharge owner observation ✓)

Sequence: Discharged Petsville afternoon 3 July → Barkoba had not urinated at all since discharge → owner brought Barkoba to St Angel emergency at approximately 8:30 PM, 3 July 2025 due to complete absence of urination post-discharge.

🚨
St Angel Medical Report (Ref: 000461, Dr Nur Salina, 7 Jul 2025): "Barkoba, a 4 y/o castrated male cat… was presented to our facility on 3/7/25 during emergency hour due to blocked FLUTD. The cat was just discharged from the previous vet on the same day morning after treating the same issue. According to owner, the cat was being drowsy since discharged." [Owner clarification: primary reason for emergency visit was that Barkoba had not urinated at all since discharge from Petsville that afternoon — no urination observed post-discharge.]

Physical examination on admission (3 Jul 2025): QAR (Quiet, Alert, Responsive). Pink mucous membranes. Skin tent present. CRT <2s. Clear lung sounds. Subnormal temperature. Bladder: very turgid, moderate to large size, non-compressible — complete urinary obstruction confirmed.

Catheterisation: Closed system urinary catheter placed that midnight (3 July 2025) due to complete blockage. Catheter maintained throughout ICU admission.

⚠️
Critical observations from this admission: (1) PLT dropped from 180 → 44 K/µL in 3 days — thrombocytopenia likely from systemic infection/sepsis. (2) RETIC 0.1% on both dates — non-regenerative anaemia already established at this stage, before any blood transfusion. (3) Enrofloxacin used empirically — later confirmed ineffective against Pseudomonas (UPM blood culture, 17 Jul). (4) Mouth ulceration noted by owner on 7 July — ulcers on lips and tongue. Barkoba unable to eat due to pain. Running nose (right nostril) first noticed by owner on 6 July. These were early clinical signs of active FHV-1 infection, later confirmed by PCR (AMC/Antech, received 21 Jul, reported 29 Jul: FHV-1 POSITIVE; DobbyVet, 22 Jul: FHV-1 POSITIVE Ct 20.19 — high load). No skin lesion was present during this period.

18 July 2025 UPM → Jawharicat — Dr Farouq
UPM Discharge → Same-Day Jawharicat Admission → Emergency Blood Transfusion ×3 Donor Cats (Day 1)
Click to expand details
🚨
Critical sequence — 18 July 2025: Barkoba was discharged from UPM on 18 July because blood transfusion was urgently needed and donor cats cannot be brought to UPM. Barkoba was transferred directly to Jawharicat the same day — Jawharicat has resident donor cats on-site. Barkoba was immediately admitted to ICU and received a blood transfusion from 3 Jawharicat resident donor cats on the same day.

Reason for discharge from UPM and transfer to Jawharicat: Blood transfusion urgently required due to critically low PCV (16%). UPM does not have resident blood donor cats, and donor cats cannot be transported to UPM. Barkoba was therefore discharged from UPM and brought directly to Jawharicat on the same day — specifically because Jawharicat has resident donor cats on-site.

PCV on 18 July (pre-transfusion): 16% — critically low (reference: 30.3–52.3%). Severe anaemia, non-regenerative.

Same-day blood transfusion — 18 July 2025 (Jawharicat, 3 resident donor cats):

Donor CatVolumeNotes

Jawharicat Resident Cat 2Whole bloodJawharicat clinic resident donor
Jawharicat Resident Cat 3Whole bloodJawharicat clinic resident donor

Blood type compatibility testing: AL-EASY kit (RM 210) purchased from Jawharicat, sent to UPM on 17 July. Barkoba confirmed Blood Type A on evening of 17 July. Transfusion from clinic resident cats on 18 July = first transfusion episode. A separate second transfusion episode occurred in early August — donors: Orked (3 Aug), Leo (3 Aug), Samsudin (4 Aug). Pablo was blood-typed but incompatible — Barkoba is blood type A, Pablo is blood type B — could not donate.

⚠️
Clarification on transfusion episodes: There were two distinct transfusion episodes during the Jawharicat ICU stay:
(1) 18 July 2025 — 3 Jawharicat resident donor cats (same day as UPM discharge, PCV 16%);
(2) 3–4 August 2025 — HCT dropped critically (exact value pending IDEXX printout). Donors: Orked (3 Aug, RM 1,386), Leo (3 Aug, RM 1,324), Samsudin (4 Aug). Pablo was blood-typed but incompatible — Barkoba blood type A, Pablo blood type B — Pablo did not donate. No transfusion on 7 Aug — HCT dropped to 22.5% but DPO injection given instead.

Jawharicat ICU admission (18 Jul onwards):

22 July — DobbyVet InCycle PCR (sample taken at Jawharicat by Dr Farouq): Owner arranged delivery to DobbyVet, Seri Kembangan. Tested and reported same day (18:12:05). Sample ID: 2507220001.

⚠️
Dr Farouq's assessment (7 Aug): Consistent anaemia despite blood transfusions on 3 Aug (Orked + Leo) and 4 Aug (Samsudin) — 3 donor cats total. Anaemia not clearly explained by CKD alone given Barkoba's weight and overall physical responses. Bone marrow biopsy recommended to assess RBC production capacity. Cause of refractory anaemia remains undetermined.

Additional 7 Aug findings: Blood culture result: No growth on Day 3 and Day 5 incubation. Pseudomonas cleared. Enterobacter reportedly clearing.

7 Aug bill: RM 8,823.60 (discharge day — peak expenditure). Total donor transfusion cost: RM 2,710 (Orked RM 1,386 + Leo RM 1,324). Note: INV-2987 "blood transfusion recipient fee" RM 300 = procedure/administration fee, not a new donation.

FINN Pathologists comment: "This is an extremely resistant isolate." — Rachel Millar, BVMS, Cert. SAM, MRCVS, Manager of Internal Medicine. No susceptible antibiotic from tested panel except Sulpha/Trimethoprim (NOT indicated for Enterococcus as per EUCAST guidelines). Isolate not tested against Linezolid, Vancomycin, Nitrofurantoin, or Fosfomycin — these should be considered.

Histopathology (bladder biopsy): 1 tissue (wedge), multiple levels. Mucosa and submucosa absent in the biopsy — primary lesion uncertain. Muscularis unremarkable. Serosal fibro-adipose tissue: few haemosiderophages, lymphocytes and plasma cells. Diagnosis: Mild non-suppurative serosal inflammation with haemosiderosis. Comment: Consider previous mural cystitis or trauma. Neoplasia not recognised in this sample, but mucosal layer absent — cannot exclude.

MIC Testing — Separate Sample, Outside Lab (collected 25 Mar 2026, result PENDING as of Apr 2026):
Dr Stephanie Lavania Petrus (AMC) collected a separate urine sample on 25 Mar 2026 and sent it to an outside laboratory for Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) level testing — more detailed than standard C&S. Objective: to identify the most effective antibiotic and optimal dosing for Barkoba specifically. Result not yet received as of 27 April 2026. This result is critical for guiding the next antibiotic strategy if stem cell protocol does not clear the infection.

MIC Broth Dilution — Cephalexin, Amoxicillin/Clavulanate, Sulfamethoxine (all tested at 100% → 0.195% serial dilution):

AntibioticConcentration range testedResult across all concentrationsInterpretation
Cephalexin (100 mg/ml)100% → 0.195%Growth (G) at all concentrationsComplete resistance — no inhibition at any concentration
Amoxicillin/Clavulanate (62.5 mg/ml)100% → 0.195%Growth (G) at all concentrationsComplete resistance — no inhibition at any concentration
Sulfamethoxine (100 ppm)100% → 0.195%Growth (G) at all concentrationsComplete resistance — no inhibition at any concentration

Method: Microorganism serially diluted to ~10⁵ CFU/mL · Product serially diluted 1:2 · Mixed 1:1 ratio · 24 hours holding time · Culture: Standard Plate Count Agar (SPCA), 37°C, Pour Plate, 2 Day. Reference strain: Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853.

⚠️
Clinical significance: Barkoba's Pseudomonas aeruginosa is extensively drug-resistant (XDR) — resistant to all antibiotics tested except aminoglycosides (Kanamycin 14mm, Neomycin 16mm, Streptomycin 10mm) which show intermediate zones. Enrofloxacin, Doxycycline, all beta-lactams including Amoxicillin/Clavulanate — all fully resistant. This result confirms that standard oral antibiotic options are exhausted. Aminoglycoside use in cats carries nephrotoxicity risk — requires careful monitoring given Barkoba's renal history. This result supports the decision to proceed with secretome stem cell therapy as next-phase intervention.

Bacteria identification (B112): Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ID:710716) confirmed isolated from urine sample. Method: In-house method 21BACI — B112.

Source: "29Jan CBC BARKOBA.jpg" (IDEXX ProCyte Dx printout, 29 Jan 2026 11:38 AM). All haematological parameters essentially normal. This represents full recovery from the Jul–Sep 2025 anaemia and thrombocytopenia crisis.

DateTroponin I (feline)ReferenceNT-proBNPReference
26 Jun 2025 (Jawharicat)0.65 ng/mL<0.06 (IDEXX feline)<50 pmol/L<100 pmol/L
29 Aug 2025 (AMC)0.05 ng/mL<0.18 ng/mL<50 pmol/L<100 pmol/L

Note: Troponin normalised by 29 Aug 2025. Cardiologist (Dr Anthony Leong, Shinzovet) interpretation: Barkoba was likely recovering from myocarditis/pericarditis secondary to systemic bacterial infection at time of elevated reading.

🦠
Priority 1 — Pseudomonas aeruginosa UTI (Persistent) — UNRESOLVED
Urine culture 25 Mar 2026: Pseudomonas aeruginosa >10⁵ CFU/mL — still positive despite cystotomy (Oct 2025), multiple Imipenem courses, and Ceftazidime (Dec 2025). Standard C&S susceptible to: Imipenem, Amikacin, Ceftazidime, Meropenem, Tazocin, Cefepime, Tobramycin. Resistant to all fluoroquinolones.

✅ MIC result confirmed — 29 April 2026 (Vet Food Agro Diagnostics, Lab Ref 26-03103A). Pseudomonas aeruginosa XDR — pan-resistant to all 17 antibiotics tested except aminoglycosides (Kanamycin, Neomycin, Streptomycin — intermediate zones). No conventional oral antibiotic options remain. Secretome stem cell therapy proceeding as next-phase intervention — Injection #1 confirmed 15 May 2026 PM. Monthly urine culture required until 3 consecutive no-growth results.
🫀
Priority 2 — Pericardial Effusion / Cardiac Status — UNRESOLVED
Pericardial effusion confirmed Sep 2025 (Shinzovet, Dr Anthony Leong). Mildly reduced CO (0.43 L/min). ASA III anaesthesia risk. No echocardiogram performed after Sep 2025 — current cardiac status unknown. Repeat echo required before any GA procedure. Troponin I had normalised by Aug 2025.
🦷
Priority 3 — Dental: Calculus Gingivitis + Right Maxillary Gum Growth — UNRESOLVED
Moderate calculus gingivitis and right upper maxillary gum growth noted by Dr Amilan (AMC, Aug 2025). Nature of gum growth undetermined — no biopsy performed. Dental procedure requires GA — deferred pending cardiac clearance. Reassess once pericardial effusion status confirmed.
Resolved — Anaemia + Thrombocytopenia
HCT 45.8%, PLT 282 K/µL, WBC 7.41 — all normal as of 29 Jan 2026 (IDEXX ProCyte Dx, UPM). Fully recovered from crisis levels (HCT 16%, PLT 44 in Jul–Aug 2025). Bone marrow biopsy no longer indicated.
Resolved — Cystotomy + Bladder Stones
Cystotomy performed 2 Oct 2025 (AMC, Dr Elise Robertson). Bladder stones removed. Endoscopy + urethrocystoscopy performed simultaneously. Histopathology: mild non-suppurative serosal inflammation, neoplasia not recognised.
Resolved — Bacteraemia
Blood cultures no growth ~Aug 2025 (Jawharicat). Pseudomonas and Enterobacter cleared from bloodstream. Current infection is localised to urinary tract only.
Resolved — Chronic Skin Infection (Cocci + Fungal)
Confirmed resolved by owner as of Apr 2026. Previously: heavy cocci + Malassezia (AMC Aug 2025), chronic pyoderma + fungal skin since 2021. Topizole shampoo treatment completed.
Not Performed — FIP / FCoV ImmunoComb
Attempted at AMC 29 Aug 2025 — unable to perform due to inadequate sample. AMC did not request a repeat. Matter closed that day. No FIP/FCoV diagnosis was made and no further action was taken.

Owner Clinical Notes (Important for Context)
Sources: All items below from Dr Amilan's AMC Medical Report dated 30 Aug 2025 (Ref: 1089740), unless stated otherwise. - Owner prefers home monitoring / housecall visits to minimise clinic stress for Barkoba. - Owner consolidates medical reports from all clinics — request full file from owner at consultation. - Owner coordinating across UPM, Jawharicat, AMC, and multiple specialists simultaneously. - Owner has explored bacteriophage therapy as contingency if Imipenem resistance develops; inquired about shipping clinical isolates to Canada for custom phage production. - Owner requests avoidance of GA and unnecessary procedures; requests pre-screening and risk/benefit analysis prior to any procedure. - Owner reports Barkoba's father died of heart attack aged 5–7 years — owner has flagged concern of possible inherited cardiac issue across all treating clinics. - Water intake target: minimum 350 ml/day oral + subcutaneous fluids 150 ml/week. [Source: Dr Farouq discharge summary, 7 Aug 2025] - Vaccination status: Last vaccinated 2022. Due for triennial (every 3 years) booster vaccination before falling ill with cystitis in April 2025 — vaccination deferred due to ongoing illness and active infection. Antibody titre test (Vaccicheck, AMC Laboratory, 25 March 2026) — FPLV AB: 3+ (adequate) · FHV AB: 4+ (strong) · FCV AB: 5+ (highest level). All three titres at protective levels. Will vaccinate once cleared for vaccination.
