Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) Tube Feeding

Rachel Renfro, CVT, VTS (ECC), demonstrates how to feed a cat through a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube (PEG tube).

PEG tubes are a large diameter tube that can be used for pets who require longer-term feeding tubes. The pet is anesthetized and the PEG tube is placed through the side of the abdomen into the stomach.
