You see, its not unusual for and older cat to become azotemic or
hyperglycemic or have a high WBC count from a trip to the vet - its called
the "white coat effect". Retesting the cat after allowing her to calm
down
and adjust to all the other animal scents in the office, more often than
not, will produce a more accurate result. I've seen this happen many,
many
times.

OK, what I don't get is, why is the cat going to be any calmer on the second
trip to the vet? Are you suggesting hospitalizing the cat for a day or two
and then taking a new sample?
