%X A 45-days-old mixed-breed female cat was referred to a veterinary specialty hospital for evaluation due to poor general condition, dyspnea of possible cardiac origin, and a heart murmur. The results of the physical examination, thoracic radiography, and echocardiography led to a diagnosis of hypotrophy of the right ventricle, tricuspid atresia, and atrial septal defect. Cardiovascular pathological findings confirmed the clinical diagnosis in addition to the observation of a ventricular septal defect. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of tricuspid atresia with atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect in a cat.
