Maintaining urinary tract health is an important factor in a cat’s overall quality of life. Using the example of Caesar and his pet parent Serena, this course leads you through an in-clinic diagnosis session when Caesar and Serena visit Dr. Hill and veterinary nurse Ana to discuss changes in Caesar’s urination habits. Using an engaging and interactive Q&A format, this course challenges you to handle a session with a potential feline LUTS sufferer and his pet parent, determine potential causes and diagnostic approaches, as well as identify appropriate nutritional management strategies and feeding recommendations. This learning module is worth 1.0 hour of continuing education credit. A downloadable certificate will be available following successful completion of the course with a score of 70% or greater.
