Show Notes

In this episode join us to listen to a panel discussion from task force members from ISFM and AAFP of the recent jointly released guidelines, Cat Friendly Veterinary Interactions: Approach and Handling Techniques and the Cat Friendly Veterinary Environment.

These guidelines have been created by a task force of authors who conducted an extensive literature review, and where evidence is lacking, the authors experience and expertise.

The four co-chairs - Nathalie Dowgray and Sam Taylor from ISFM and Ilona Rodan and Kelly St. Denis from AAFP – along with Sarah Heath, one of the task force members, sit down and discuss why these guidelines were updated and what has changed since the original handling guidelines were released in 2011.
