You Won’t Believe What This Cat’s Lump Revealed!

A simple lump under the ear? Not quite!

This 5-year-old kitty was diagnosed with a mast cell tumor by FNA. But here's the twist -under the microscope, we saw eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) “eating” red blood cells. This behavior called erythrophagia is hardly ever seen in eosinophils, and almost never reported in cats!

Dear PDS Clients,

Canada Post is on strike effective Sept 25, 2025. PDS will not be receiving any samples that were sent through Canada Post. If possible, please send samples via Purolator (or another courier company) until the strike is over and normal operations have resumed. Samples can be dropped off at PDS as well.

Please contact PDS Receiving Office (306-966-7316 or dso@usask.ca) if you have any questions on the best way to ship to PDS during the service disruption.

Look what we found under the microscope! A healthy dog came in for a check-up, and while everything looked normal, including bloodwork and urine tests—we spotted tiny mite-like creatures in the urine sample. But don’t worry! Because the sample was a “free flow” sample, it’s likely these little critters snuck in from the environment and didn’t indicate a disease in this dog. A great reminder of how fascinating—and sometimes surprising—lab work can be!

Thanks to Dr Lilani Munasinghe for sharing this interesting case!

PDS has received the notification below from Purolator regarding shipments to the USA. This appears to also be affecting other courier services as well. If you have questions, please contact us.
Thank you

"At this moment Due to recent changes to the U.S. import declaration processes, shipments from Canada to the U.S. may experience delays. As a result, Purolator’s service guarantee on shipments to the U.S. has been suspended until further notice."
