🚨 WARNING GRAPHIC - This is Pyometra 🚨
This uterus weighed 2kg — filled with infection.

Pyometra is a life-threatening emergency seen in unspayed female dogs and cats. It’s a severe infection of the uterus that can cause:
⚠️ Vomiting & lethargy
⚠️ Sepsis
⚠️ Organ failure
⚠️ Death if untreated

Emergency surgery is the only cure — and it’s risky, expensive, and preventable.

🐾 Spaying saves lives. Don’t wait for a close call.
