In the April episode of Chattering with International Cat Care, host Yaiza Gómez-Mejías introduces two conversations that highlight just how complex feline diagnostics can be.First, Dr Llibertat Real Sampietro discusses her JFMS Open Reports case study on fatal disseminated toxoplasmosis in an otherwise healthy cat. She outlines the parasite's transmission, the clinical signs that may raise suspicion, and the value of serology and PCR in confirming infection.Then, Dr Kelly St Denis is joined by Dr Frane Banovic to discuss the first of two JFMS Clinical Spotlight articles on immune-mediated skin disease in cats. Together, they explore how to recognise key patterns of disease and the practical role of cytology in reaching a diagnosis.For further reading material please visit:Fatal disseminated Toxoplasma gondii infection in a cat from Madrid, SpainFrane Banovic : Feline Immune-mediated skin disorders (Part One)Frane Banovic : Feline Immune-mediated skin disorders (Part Two)For iCatCare Veterinary Members, full recordings of each episode of the podcast are available for you to listen to at portal.icatcare.org.

Der amerikanische Schriftsteller Ernest Miller Hemingway sagte einst: Katzen erreichen mühelos, was uns Menschen versagt bleibt, durchs Leben zu gehen, ohne Lärm zu machen. Umso so wichtiger ist es, unseren Samtpfoten gerade im Bereich der tierärztlichen Praxen/Kliniken ein ruhiges und katzenfreundliches Umfeld zu bieten. In diesem Podcast geht es um das Thema “Cat friendly clinic“ und wie dieses umgesetzt werden könnte.

Joining Anthony for this PodCAT episode of VETchat by The Webinar Vet are Jody Lulich & Nathalie Dowgray. Jody is a Professor of medicine at the University of Minnesota Veterinary School and Nathalie is the Head of the International Society for Feline Medicine.

They cover topics such as; the 3 most common diseases: stones, plugs, idiopathic cystitis, performing Decompressive Cystocentesis in a blocked cat, and how important urinary cytology really is. Anthony asks if we should be x-raying all the feline bladders we see, thus leading to a discussion on x-ray machines vs ultrasound machines. They also discuss the importance of nutrition when it comes to treating diseases such as struvite stones and give their insights on the wet vs. dry food debate. Anthony asks whether the general level of knowledge for nutrition in felines is still leading to cases of surgeries that may otherwise be avoidable through diet adaptations. Finally, Jody shares some news on the new potential treatment of FIP.

This week we're joined by the wonderful Carly Kilby!Carly is a veterinary nurse, scout leader and mother. She grew up in South London, but discovered her love for veterinary work and the outdoors after moving to countryside in her teenage years. We discuss the difficulties of finding people who understand the intricacies of a job in the veterinary profession, and the embarrassment of accidentally recounting disgusting work stories to non-vet friends over dinner.After qualifying in 2006, Carly has worked within farm, equine, first opinion practice and the referral locum scene. She has gained an ISFM certificate in Feline Friendly Nursing, an ESVPS certificate in anaesthesia, an ISVPS certificate in surgical nursing and is also the BVNA Regional Representative for the South West (Somerset and Gloucestershire)! We spend a lot of time talking about the importance of family and the difficulties of finding balance between commitments at home and work. As veterinary professionals, it's something that we can all relate to. Carly talks about her experiences of having to put work before fun during her vet nurse training, and the pressure of being a parent alongside supporting a number of busy teams as a locum.Carly gives us a reflective 60-second CPD on returning to work after maternity leave and we discuss the worries, guilt and pressures that working parents can experience when trying to balance life's wants and needs.If you are ever struggling with any of the issues we spoke about in this episode (or any episode) don't forget there's support out there - speak up if you're struggling: we all have times when we need some care ourselves.

The last of our cat bites of summer. This is an interview with Dr Panos Xenopoulis, the winner of his year's most downloaded podcast. We are still in Rhodes and are talking about the cat population on the island.
Dr. Sarah Heath is joining us for this short summer cat bite. Taped in beautiful Rhodes, Greece, during ISFM. Dr. Sarah Heath is from the UK and talks about cat behavior and the importance of thinking about the health triad: the interplay between emotional, cognitive, and physical health. One of the topics is zero pain in cats. A cool 10 minutes in the Greek heat of summer.
Dr. Hillary Noyes shares her learnings from the ISFM meeting in Rhodes, Greece. A multidisciplinary approach to cat behavior is so essential to be successful.
Dr. Kelly joined me in Rhoides Greece at the ISFM Congress where we reminisce about all the things we have heard. This is a 5 week summer edition of the purrpodcast with short podcasts full of info and lots of fun interviews.
This summer we will have short Summer Cat Bites. These are 10-minute-long episodes that were taped in Rhodes Greece during the latest ISFM Congress. The first one hosts Claire Bessant, the leading voice behind International Cat Care where they believe in a world in which each cat's life experience will be as good as it can be. They do this by providing cat owners, veterinary professionals and those that live and work with cats with the resources, support and advice they need to care better for their cats.
