Feline medicine

Feline medicine is the branch of veterinary care focused specifically on the health and treatment of cats. It encompasses a wide range of topics, including preventive care (like vaccinations and nutrition), diagnosis and treatment of illnesses, and management of chronic conditions. Veterinarians who specialize in feline medicine are trained to recognize and understand the unique physiological and behavioral characteristics of cats, which can differ significantly from other pets like dogs. This specialized knowledge helps ensure that cats receive the best possible veterinary care tailored to their specific needs.
