Our focus this month is on the JFMS Special Collection about accessible veterinary care which is available for you to read using the link below. Firstly, Nathalie Dowgray sits down with Dr Linda Jacobson, our special guest editor of the collection. We discuss how the collection came to be, the barriers preventing cats from receiving veterinary care and the work she is doing with the Toronto Humane Society to help both cats and caregivers who are struggling. Nathalie is then joined by International Cat Care’s Head Of Unowned Cats, Vicky Halls, and they speak with Dr Gemma Ma about her paper on the characteristics of cat semi-owners and their impact in Australia.
