No, but there is are two common iliac arteries (branches of the abdominal aorta). The common iliac arteries then divide into internal and external iliac arteries.

What carries blood to the intestine?
The small intestine has 3 parts: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The large intestine starts on the right with the ascending colon proceeds across the body as the transverse colon and then goes down on the left side of the body as the descending colon. The descending colon becomes the sigmoid colon. The rectum and anal canal follow. The celiac trunk gives off the common hepatic artery, which branches into the proper hepatic artery and the gastroduodenal artery. The gastroduodenal artery gives off the supraduodenal, retroduodenal, anterior and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal arteries. These 4 arteries supply the duodenum. The superior mesenteric artery branches into several different arteries. The anterior and posterior pancreaticoduodenal arteries supply the duodenum. Intestinal arteries have a complex network of arcades that feed the jejunum and ileum. The ileocecal artery off the SMA gives off branches to the terminal ileum and the cecum. The right colic artery supplies the ascending colon. The inferior mesenteric artery branches into the middle colic artery, which supplies the transverse colon; the left colic artery, which supplies the descending colon; the sigmoid artery, to the sigmoid colon; rectosigmoid artery, in between the rectum and the sigmoid colon; superior rectal artery, to the uppermost part of the rectum.
What are the vessels pertaining to the ileum and the colon?
The superior mesenteric artery supply the from the second part of duodenum to two third of the transverse colon. This include the entire small intestine. The inferior mesenteric artery supply the rest of the colon to upper part of the rectum.

yes
How do you differentiate ileum and jejunum intra- op?
The ileum has more fat inside the mesentery than the jejunum.The ileum is a paler color, and tends to be of a smaller caliber as well.
What does the inner surface of the ileum feel like in a cat?
In most organisms, the inner surface of the ileum is soft and smooth, like velvet. The same is true of a cat's ileum.
