  • Thank you for such a great podcast for cats!!

    Hello, I have been a listener for many years! Fantastic episodes with Dr Leslie Lyons pertaining to cancers in cats!! So much info about prevalences, cancer types, studies, and genetics! Just what my brain loves! Thank you! P.S. Susan, I am a huge believer in the Oxford Comma. I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want to use it!

  • Lively dialogue and always informative

    Love listening to the podcast when running. Highly recommend! The podcasts have made me a better veterinarian! Lately- technician and dermatology podcasts, the audio for Dr Kirpensteijn has been softer than Dr Little and the guest. I hope this can be remedied. Thanks for your gift of knowledge to the veterinary and cat loving community!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Can Stem Cells Help Cats with Arthritis, Kidney Disease & Stomatitis? with Dr. Rebecca Windsor
Q: How many doses are typically given and is re-dosing common?
Two doses are common with consideration for booster dosing depending on clinical response, and future protocols will better define optimal redosing intervals based on longer-term outcomes.
Can Stem Cells Help Cats with Arthritis, Kidney Disease & Stomatitis? with Dr. Rebecca Windsor
Q: What are the potential adverse effects and how do they manage them in practice?
Most adverse effects are mild and GI-related, occurring early after administration; slow infusion helps, and in many cases, delaying or adjusting the dose with supportive meds mitigates reactions without halting treatment.
Point of Care Ultrasound with Dr. Serge Chaloub
Q: How does ultrasound change fluid management in azotemic cats?
POCUS allows evaluation of the kidneys, caudal vena cava, and left atrium to tailor fluid therapy and avoid overload, which has been linked to poorer outcomes.
Point of Care Ultrasound with Dr. Serge Chaloub
Q: Who can learn and use point-of-care ultrasound in a veterinary setting?
It's designed for everyone—from veterinary students and early-career DVMs to technicians in triage—it's not just for specialists, and experience will build with practice.
Point of Care Ultrasound with Dr. Serge Chaloub
Q: Do you need a very expensive machine to perform point-of-care ultrasound?
No. Three affordable handheld units under $10,000 were found to be effective for basic POCUS questions, and the training program focuses on making this accessible to students and clinicians.
