Course description:

An 8-year-old castrated male British Shorthair indoor cat was presented to the dermatology service with a history of vomiting, pruritus and skin lesions progressing over two years. You already know how frustrating can be treating an inflammatory/pruritic skin condition in a cat that fails to respond to conventional therapy. Let’s find out why!

Objectives:

  • Apply systematic knowledge and problem solving strategies to prioritise the differential diagnoses based on clinical history, signalment and physical examination findings.
  • Perform and interpret the diagnostic testing required to confirm a clinical diagnosis of the pruritic cat.
  • Learn the importance of bacterial culture and susceptibility testing.
