2 Figure 1 Skin temperature (mean ± SD) over time in eight cats for K5: Ketamine LD 0.5 mg kg−1 followed by 5 μg kg−1 minute−1 ketamine infusion (black circles), K23: Ketamine LD 0.5 mg kg−1 followed by 23 μg kg−1 minute−1 ketamine infusion (white squares) or saline treatment (white triangles). Notice that the data points for K5 are slightly offset at each time point to improve readability.

3 Figure 2 Thermal threshold (mean ± SD) over time in eight cats for K5: Ketamine LD 0.5 mg kg−1 followed by 5 μg kg−1 minute−1 ketamine infusion (black circles), K23: Ketamine LD 0.5 mg kg−1 followed by 23 μg kg−1 minute−1 ketamine infusion (white squares) or saline treatment (white triangles). Significant changes from BL (baseline): (*) in K5. Significant changes from BL and between treatments: (†) in K23. Notice that the data points for K5 are slightly offset at each time point to improve readability.
