HEALTHY CATS FOR LIFE
The AAFP and Fort Dodge Animal Health have again teamed up to help you
spread the message of feline wellness. The new "Healthy Cats for Life"
campaign will help educate cat owners about the importance of
twice-a-year veterinary exams and recognizing the subtle signs of
sickness. Clinic kits have been distributed to AAFP members and
selected National Pet Wellness Month registrants. This program is a
continuation of the cat wellness program launched in 2005, "The Great
Cat Watch, for Wellness Sake!". Please update your hospital website to
include the link below and notify your clients about this educational
