Abstract

The present study is carried out to investigate some morphometric aspects of reproductive organs in Iraqi feral cats. Forty six female genital specimens from sexually mature queens were trapped during the period from December 2008 to December 2009.The specimens were classified into pregnant and non pregnant. The non pregnant were further classified into reproductive systems with or without obvious pathological changes. During the entire period, the results showed that the means of length, width and thickness of right and left ovaries were 9.8 x5.03 x3.95 mm and 9.56x 4.8 x3.05 mm respectively, with no significant variation (p≥ 0.05) between the dimensions of right and left ovaries or between dimensions of the different seasons. The means of length of right and left uterine tubes were 54.4 and 55.7 mm respectively, with no significant variation (p≥0.05) between the dimensions of right and left uterine tubes or between dimension of different seasons. The means of length and diameter of right and left uterine horns were 48.44 x 5.41 mm and 54.43 x 5.14mm, with significant variation (P≤0.01) between dimensions of right and left uterine horns and _ between the dimensions of different seasons. Also, the result showed that the means of the length and diameter of uterine bodies and cervix were 22.75 x5.29 mm and13.2 x 8.72mm respectively with significant variation (P≤0.01) between dimensions of different seasons.
