A 16-year-old spayed female Siamese cat was presented with a history of paraparesis and obstipation. The cat's impaired function was attributed to malalignment of the L7-S1 spine (cauda equina syndrome) and to traumatic fracture of the left femoral neck, with severe degenerative arthritis. Laminectomy resolved the cauda equina problem, and the hip joint was not treated.
