The spleen is an internal organ that removes old blood cells from the cat's circulatory system and holds a reserve of blood in case of injury.

The spleen doesn't typically cause any harm unless it is ruptured, a veterinary emergency requiring immediate surgery to save the cat. The spleen is well protected, so the cat would have to receive a traumatic injury for this to happen.
