I’m sad to announce that this will be our last “Ask the Vet With Dr. Kris” segment for a while. Dr. Kris is embarking on a new project that is taking up all of his time: he developed The Cuban Experience Workshop, a week-long course for vets, vet students and veterinary technicians. Currently taught in Cuba, he has plans for an educational tour based on the workshop for 2018. I encourage you to subscribe to Dr. Kris’ updates so you can keep up with him and still benefit from the information he publishes on his own website.Continue Reading

Did you miss last night’s Ask the Vet teleseminar with Dr. Fern Crist?  If so, you missed a fantastic hour packed with information every cat parent should know.  Dr. Crist answered questions about dental health, feline nutrition, anesthesia, and how to get your cat to loose weight.  But not to worry!  You can still listen to the interview by clicking on the link below.   You can also save the recording to disk so you can listen to it on the media player of your choice by right clicking on the link, and then selecting “save target as” (for PC’s) or “save link as” (for Mac’s).

Thanks to everyone who joined us on the call, and for asking such great questions!
