Abstrakt:	As the saying goes, "cats are not small dogs." Throughout veterinary medicine history, most of the literature focus has been on the canine. Feline patients, however, now constitute a larger proportion of the pet population and are unique in many aspects. They differ anatomically and biomechanically from canines and have specific recovery needs and different pain-related behaviors. It is important that veterinary surgeons understand these differences and improve their knowledge base in the treatment of cats. This article highlights the differences in cats relevant to minimally invasive fracture repair and how they affect a surgeon's approach to fractures in cats. (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
