How do aortic arch arteries of a cat differ from those of a human?
The abdominal aorta splits caudally into the external iliac arteries, and a short section of the aorta continues on and then divides to form the two internal iliac arteries and the caudal artery. There is no common iliac artery in cats as there is in humans. In cats, the caudal artery takes blood to the tail

What is a the normal resting heart rate for a dog?
Normal pulse in cats: 130 - 240 beats per minute. How to check your cat's pulse/heartbeat: To check the pulse, feel for the femoral artery which is located close to the surface on the inside of the thigh at the groin. I found it difficult to find the femoral artery to check the pulse, another method which I found much easier was to feel the heartbeat. To do this press against the rib cage over the heart. With the cat standing, feel the pulse just behind the elbow. See image below. Either way, count the number of beats in 15 seconds & then multiply by 4 to get the total number per minute.

How do you count pulse and respirations in veterinary medicine?
The pulse is measured by placing the first two fingers over a superficial artery; in dogs and cats you can access the external iliac artery pretty easy while in cattle and horses the facial artery is the preferred site. The respiratory rate can be measured by observing the caudal edge of the ribs contracting medially. Both measurements are counted over a period of time, usually 10 or 15 seconds, then calculated to determine the number per minute. Another option is to simply measure both while ausculting the lungs through a stethoscope - you can hear both lung and heart sounds while doing this. This has the advantage of taking less time, as you can be listening for abnormal sounds (such as a heart murmur) while you are counting the number of beats for 15 seconds.
