Twelve cats and nine dogs suffering incidental swallowing of foreign bodies were included in this study. Various foreign bodies were detected in their mouth, oesophagus, stomach and intestines. The most common and obvious clinical signs were persistent vomiting, anorexia and de- pression. Diagnosis was based on case history, clinical examination and radiography. Surgery was successfully adopted in most of cases. | ||||
