Thai vets implant first cat pacemaker, saving 8-year-old cat with rare heart condition.
Thai veterinarians at Chula University performed the country’s first successful cat pacemaker implantation on Pepsi, an 8-year-old cat suffering frequent fainting due to a rare heart rhythm disorder.
The procedure, requiring an open-chest surgery to attach the lead directly to the heart, was necessary because of the cat’s thin heart walls and small size.
Using a donated, sterilized pacemaker, the team implanted the device under the abdomen.
Pepsi has since recovered fully, regaining energy and appetite.
The milestone highlights Thailand’s advancing veterinary care and encourages pet owners to seek early treatment for heart symptoms.
