I scanned the bladder with showed a thickened bladder wall, suspecting a bladder tumour. 
 I attempted to catheterise the pig, but just couldn&amp;#39;t find a urethral opening!

Gently extrude the penis and pull it caudally ( so the tip is facing caudally). Now you can place a fairly large catheter if you gently push it into the top opening. Dorsal as you look at it.

There should be no resistance and it should slip in easily.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Guinea Pig anatomy</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/141965?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 27 Aug 2015 09:01:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:4a5521e6-3bf1-4d4f-ae31-137984780bd9</guid><dc:creator>Anthony Dennison</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you for that!!
