We're looking for UK cat owners currently caring for a cat with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to complete a survey to help veterinary researchers gather more information on this condition, which commonly affects older cats.
If you can help and have 15–20 minutes to spare, please consider taking the survey 👉 https://forms.office.com/r/JFUMCZBxUs
Thank you for taking the time to collaborate for cats! 😺
When it comes to cat beds, provide open and hidden options so your cat always has a choice. In a multicat household, ensure there are ample options for everyone.
Timid cats often like beds that provide a little concealment because it provides security. This way, they remain hidden while they evaluate what's going on in the environment and it also prevents them from being ambushed from behind.
Comfortable with cardiomyopathies? 🫀 In the July issue of our free nurse journal, Feline Focus, RVN Charlotte Walden discusses hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in cats and the associated nursing considerations including:
➡️ Physical and emotional health
➡️ Nursing interventions, monitoring and medications
➡️ Home management and monitoring

Cats approach each other and engage in a round of nose-to-nose sniffing to determine familiarity and do an initial scent investigation. When you extend your finger at the same height as the cat’s nose, without making any other move, you give the cat the option to approach or not.
Great news
🔥Hot from the press! 🔥ABCD's Katrin Hartmann's team (including Regina Hofmann-Lehmann and this year's Young Scientist Awardee Katharina Zwicklbauer) just published proof that a 6-week treatment of FIP cats with oral GS-441524 is equally effective as the 12-week protocol. Great news for cats and cat owners alike!
