Understanding Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease in Clinical Practice

Urinary tract issues are one of the most common reasons cats present to general practice. While the clinical signs often overlap, the underlying causes can vary significantly, from idiopathic inflammation to neoplasia.

Audiogenic seizures in cats and what triggers them

Audiogenic seizures are set off by very specific sound triggers that are often sharp or high-pitched. They are more common in older cats, particularly Burmese, and can be easy to miss unless the pattern between the sound and the symptoms is recognised.

Anaemia in Cats

Anaemia in cats is a complex condition that often develops with other diseases and can be difficult to recognise. A thorough diagnostic approach is crucial to determine the type and underlying cause for appropriate treatment and management.

The signs and causes of feline urinary problems and how to care for them at home

If something seems off about your cat’s toileting habits, act early. While feline urinary problems are common, the signs and causes range from manageable to severe. And if your cat needs ongoing care at home, you will have an essential role in their care.

Why is my cat not eating?

Cats tend to keep things to themselves when they’re unwell, but changes in grooming habits, energy levels, and social activity can all be clues. And one of the clearest is a loss of appetite. If your cat’s not eating, here are some common causes.

Skilled and compassionate cat nurses make all the difference

Veterinary patients can’t speak, but they always communicate. Skilled and compassionate cat nurses know exactly what cats are trying to say. They bring a specialised approach that combines behavioural insight, technical precision and emotional awareness.
