Abstrakt: Trichlorethylene (Trilene®) proved to be thé most satisfactory agent for anaesthesia in experimental surgery with cats. It is non-explosive and provides rapid induction and recovery, good levels of anaesthesia, a wide margin of safety, low mortality, and a low post-operative complication rate. It is cheap, and can be administered with simple equipment. The technique is described. Halothane was unsuitable because of its high cost, and low margin of safety without a special vaporizer. Pentobarbital was unsatisfactory because of a high mortality and inadequate anaesthesia for the extensive experimental surgery performed in these animals.
