ICatCare announces final congress event for 2022
The 'Feline Fine' event will focus on putting the organisation's Cat-Friendly Priniciples into action within the veterinary clinic.
‘Feline Fine’ promises an exciting programme of CPD and networking opportunities.

The International Society of Feline Medicine has announced its final congress event for 2022.

Open to all veterinary professionals, the ‘Feline Fine’ CPD event, will take place on Saturday, 26 November in London, and will focus on putting the organisation’s Cat-Friendly Principles into action within the veterinary clinic.

With opportunities to network and experience London during the festive season, the event replaces the previously planned Hong Kong congress, postponed owing to the ongoing travel restrictions caused by COVID-19. 

The event promises an engaging five-hour programme of feline-focussed CPD through short lectures and interactive panel discussions with leading feline experts. 

Speakers include Dr Sarah Heath, veterinary specialist in behavioural medicine, Dr Matt Gurney, veterinary specialist in anaesthesia and analgesia, and Linda Ryan, veterinary technician specialist in oncology and behaviour.

“This has been a really exciting programme to put together,” commented Dr Nathalie Dowgray, head of ISFM. “Some cats can be challenging in the veterinary clinic even when the team has made every effort to be cat friendly. 

“We wanted to recognise that and include in our panel discussion real-life scenarios to equip vets and nurses with the tools they need for when things don’t go according to plan.” 

The programme is structured to give all members of the veterinary team, including veterinary nurses and receptionists, the confidence to play a role in creating a cat-friendly environment within their clinic. There will also be a chance to network and mingle at a festive drinks reception.

More details about the event are available at icatcare.org
