Sommario/riassunto

This manual provides accessible advice on the management of common feline problems encountered in first-opinion practice. It begins with an introduction to important general issues in effective feline practice, including handling techniques, principles of examination and how to ensure a cat-friendly practice. Preventive healthcare guidelines follow, focusing on a life-stage approach, together with a discussion of therapeutics. Problem-oriented sections focus on the investigation and initial management of emergencies and common presentations. The final systems-based section gives more detailed information on the management of disorders commonly seen in general practice. Features 'Quick Reference Guides' presenting practical techniques and treatments in an easy-to-follow step-by-step format.
