Take a deep breath! Feline lower airway disease and how to manage it.
Coughing is a relatively uncommon presentation in cats, but can be misinterpreted by owners, and can be challenging to diagnose. Asthma and chronic bronchitis are common causes of cough and these conditions are not often cured but can be well managed. Nurses play a key role in the diagnosis and management of these conditions, supporting clients and improving compliance to medications. This webinar discusses how a diagnosis is made, and how nurses and technicians can help, particularly when it comes to training a cat to tolerate inhaled medications.
