SMALL-SCALE MEETINGS IN THE FIELD OF FELINE MEDICINE

What is our goal?

Welcome to Feline Vet Friends, the association for veterinarians with a special interest in feline medicine. We would like to provide veterinarians and veterinary students with information regarding feline veterinary medicine.

We want to achieve this by organizing in-depth lectures by renowned speakers. The lectures have an exclusive character, because the group size will not exceed 35-45 participants. We hope to keep the lectures interactive. Furthermore, we tend to discuss the subjects more in-depth. This distinguishes our association from other courses.

In addition, there will be opportunities to discuss case studies, protocols and guidelines regarding feline medicine under the guidance of a specialist. You will also find guidelines, interesting articles and summaries on our website.

If you become a member of Feline Vet Friends, you can register 2 weeks earlier for the organized courses. Since there are limited places available, full = full!

Hide & Sleep can be ordered again

The Hide & Sleep are developed by Cats Protection, the UK's largest feline welfare charity. These houses are a great way to give hospitalized cats a safe space to hide or to have a nice spot for a look out. The Hide & Sleep is sturdy and easy to clean. They are 41.5 x 32.0x 38.5 cm and weigh 3.5 kg.
It is near impossible to order the Hide & Sleep individually from Cats Protection, but you can order them now at NLPharma through this link. Delivery time is about 4 weeks.
