New Educational Website Helps Cat Caregivers Be the Best They Can Be

Powered by Feline Veterinarians, Website Serves up Credible Information & Unites Cat Lovers

Cat caregivers have a very strong bond with their feline family members, and want to give them long, happy, and healthy lives. The American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP), an organization of feline veterinarians, whose mission to improve the health and welfare of cats, has launched “The Cat Community:” www.catfriendly.com. Powered by feline veterinarians, catfriendly.com provides cat caregivers with valuable educational information that is reliable and trustworthy. Caregivers are able to learn about their cat’s natural, but sometimes mysterious behaviors; the importance of routine veterinary care; feline diseases; tips on how to be a great cat friendly caregiver; and answer many of their most pressing questions, such as why does my cat scratch?

“Better education for cat caregivers means better care for cats,” said Dr. Lauren Demos, BVMS, HonsBSc, and President of the AAFP. “Catfriendly.com supplies cat caregivers with credible content on feline health topics so that if they do turn to an online search, they know this information is reliable. However, no amount of online education can replace the relationship a caregiver and their cat has with their veterinarian.”

The website includes critical information in the following areas of focus:

The site also features a “Find a Veterinarian or Practice” search database so cat caregivers can locate an AAFP member veterinarian or Cat Friendly Practice® in their area. The importance of fostering a close relationship with a veterinarian is highlighted throughout the site and caregivers are encouraged to contact their veterinarian for both sick visits and vital routine preventive care check-ups. You care, we care, cat care. Join the Cat Community and visit: http://www.catfriendly.com.
