Why this training matters, even for healthy cats
Medical training isn't just for emergencies. It means I can spot the subtle signs of stress or illness a cat won't show a stranger, handle a scared or hiding cat without adding to their anxiety, and know the difference between a cat who's just shy and one who needs a vet call, for any cat, not only ones with a diagnosis.
