This month, as we are discussing topics that are very close to our hearts, we have
made the full version available to non-members. Yaiza Gomez-Mejias interviews the winner of the JFMS Resident best paper, Marieke Knies, about feline diabetes and the FreeStyle Libre. We're also featuring our monthly JFMS clinical spotlight interview in which Nathalie Dowgray discusses Cat Friendly Principles for Veterinary Professionals with her fellow authors.
To begin our episode, Yaiza is joined by Marieke Knies who won the 2022 JFMS Open Reports Best Practitioner Paper with her study on feline diabetes and the FreeStyle Libre. They discuss the advantages, complications and clinical accuracy of the study as well as feedback from the cat owners involved.
Nathalie then sits down with some of the team at International Cat Care who helped to develop and write Cat Friendly Principles for Veterinary Professionals: Dr Sarah Ellis, Vicky Halls and our former CEO Claire Bessant. They discuss why there was a need to develop these principles, what they entail and how the veterinary profession has evolved over the years to improve the care available for cats.
