Feline friendly congress a success
Japanese delegates
Delegates from around the world gathered at the ISFM European Congress in Portugal. 
ISFM's event in Portugal attracts almost 500 attendees 

The 2015 International Society of Feline Medicine's (ISFM) European Congress held earlier this month has been hailed a success.

The congress, which is now in its fourteenth year, attracted almost 500 attendees representing 38 different countries. Taking place in the Portuguese city of Porto from 1-5 July, delegates were treated to five days of feline specific cpd.

Day one was dedicated to non-surgical feline fertility control - the first conference of its kind in Europe, and the first ever to be dedicated to cats.  The following days covered feline dermatology, led by renowned speaker Karen Moriello, and feline haematology, led by Barbara Kohn from Freie Universitat in Berlin.

Several masterclasses, a scientific poster session and symposiums complemented the main scientific programme. The CPD was also interspersed with opportunities to relax and socialise - including a lively commercial exhibition, several evening receptions, dinner at the famous Taylor's Port Cellars and an afternoon off for exploring Porto.

Over 150 people have already registered their interest for next year's congress, which takes places in Malta from 29 June - 3 July. The scientific programme will cover feline gastrointestinal disease and feline orthopaedics and attendees.  For more information visit http://icatcare.org/isfm-congress.
