Chattering with iCatCare

This month we begin with the first of our 'In Conversations With' sessions, where Dr. Sam Taylor talks with Professor Clare Rusbridge about neuropathic pain. We're also featuring our monthly JFMS clinical spotlight interview in which we discuss feline mandibular fractures with Dr. Alix Freeman

ISFM’s own Dr. Sam Taylor is joined by Professor Clare Rusbridge at our Rhodes Congress to discuss neuropathic pain. We ask what exactly is it? How can we tell when a cat is suffering from neuropathic pain and how do we distinguish it from emotional distress? Are there treatment options for neuropathic pain?

Nathalie then sits down with Dr. Alix Freeman to discuss her JFMS clinical spotlight article Mandibular fracture repair techniques in cats: a dentist perspective and Alix shares her top tips for those of us in GP practice.
