Treatment of Chronic Pain

Treatment of Chronic Pain
Once feline chronic pain has been identified, treatment can begin. This is a delicate balance of compromise, patience, and creativity. Our plan needs to be long-term, approved by the cat, and feasible for the owner as well. This session will focus on treatment options for all members of the cat care team.
