Cats bring unique challenges to veterinary orthopaedics including their small size and agile lifestyles. Compared with dogs they are less likely to have developmental disease and more likely to have acquired conditions. Co-author of the second edition of the Feline Orthopaedics and RCVS diplomate in small animal orthopaedics, Phil will take this opportunity to discuss management of fractures and other orthopaedic disease including osteoarthritis in cats.
