This new addition to the BSAVA Foundation Manual series serves
to provide an easily accessible source of practical 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. Gold-standard preventive healthcare guidelines focusing
on a life-stage approach and a discussion on therapeutics including
antibiotic use, analgesia and anaesthesia follow. The main part of
the Manual comprises problem-oriented sections that focus on the
investigation and initial management of, first, emergencies and
then other common presentations such as alopecia, polydipsia and
seizures. The final systems-based section gives more detailed
information on the management of the disorders commonly seen in
general practice.
The Manual gives enough information for any vet to deal very
competently with commonly seen feline problems, also providing
guidance on where to go for further information if required. Where
appropriate, guidelines are also given for when referral should be
considered, and for situations where financial limitations may
exist.
A unique feature of this Manual are the many 'Quick Reference
Guides' (QRGs) provided throughout, which present practical
techniques and treatments in easy-to-follow step-by-step guides,
with clear colour photographs illustrating each step whenever
possible.
The international panel of authors were carefully chosen for
their practical expertise and passion in different areas of feline
practice. The practical and easy-to-follow advice provided in this
Manual makes it essential reading for all new graduates and
first-opinion vets who see feline cases, as well as veterinary
students and veterinary nurses worldwide.
