A source of practical and easy-to-follow advice for veterinarians in general practice who encounter a wide variety of common feline problems. The Manual is divided into three sections: an introduction to important general issues in effective feline practice; a problem-oriented section presenting easy-to-follow step-by-step guides to investigating and/or managing common problems; a systems-based section, with more detailed information on the management of disorders with the focus on problems commonly seen in general practice. Quick Reference Guides are provided throughout the Manual highlighting practical treatments or techniques.
