Pancreatitis, Feline - contd.

Cause
Infections with parasites, viruses, or toxoplasmosis have been suggested as possible causes in some cats. Bile reflux from the small intestine into the pancreatic tissue may also trigger pancreatitis in cats. A connection may also exist between kidney disease and the development of pancreatitis. Despite these possibilities, the cause of pancreatitis in most cats remains unknown.
