In the September episode of Chattering With International Cat Care, we bring together two conversations on how innovation and teamwork shape feline medicine.

First, Yaiza Gómez Mejías speaks with Morgane Debuigne, winner of the JFMS Resident Best Paper Award 2024, about her article on feline supraglottic airway devices. What does the latest research reveal about their role in anaesthesia and where do they fit alongside established practice?

Then, Dr Kelly St. Denis continues her discussion with Mary Ellen Goldberg on feline rehabilitation. In this second part, they explore therapies, exercises, and the practical ways veterinary teams and owners can play a role in supporting recovery. Catch up on the first part of their conversation by tuning into our July episode!
