CATalyst’s Cat Friendly Practice
Change is needed in how we currently treat cats! CATalyst Council’s Cat-Friendly Practice is a combined effort to educate veterinary teams about ways to enhance feline visits to the veterinarian.
This collection of short presentations is designed for you to use in sections or as a whole to shape your practice to best cater to cats and cat owners. Another opportunity to help cats is to utilize these presentations to educate shelters on cat handling techniques and life stage needs. Consider offering a cat CE session to your local shelter.
Below you can watch, download, or share our video segments designed to help assist veterinary teams about ways to enhance feline visits to the veterinarian.
CATalyst Council is also proud to endorse American Association of Feline Practitioner’s Cat Friendly Practice program and resources.
