The Feline Patient, Sixth Edition is a reliable, accessible reference to help veterinarians manage their caseload with confidence and clarity. With concise, clinically-focused chapters across a wide spectrum of topics, the book is an indispensable reference for any veterinarian treating feline patients, whether the case is straightforward or complex. Designed with ease of use in mind, this fully revised edition offers feline-specific information and advice to support fast and effective clinical decision-making.

The sixth edition incorporates significant updates reflecting the latest developments in feline medicine, including advancements in feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), kidney disease, urinary tract disorders, and imaging. New chapters expand the book’s scope to cover emerging areas such as pain management, triage and stabilization, complementary and alternative therapies, cats in laboratory animal science, and rehabilitation. The reorganized layout separates infectious conditions and clinical signs for faster navigation, while high-quality colour images enhance understanding of diagnostic findings.

Blending practical guidance with evidence-based insights to meet the daily demands of clinical practice, The Feline Patient, Sixth Edition:

  • Contains 40 new or significantly revised chapters addressing emerging and evolving areas of feline medicine
  • Features dedicated sections on complementary and alternative therapies, including acupuncture, chiropractic care, and cold laser therapy

  • Integrates advanced imaging and up-to-date diagnostic techniques supported by numerous full-colour illustrations and photos
  • Includes a companion website with additional web images and videos and downloadable client handouts for every chapter

The Feline Patient, Sixth Edition remains a trusted and essential resource for delivering optimal feline health care.
