Any college-level collection strong in veterinary references and practicing vets must have the third updated edition of THE FELINE PATIENT: busy practitioners and students receive a reference that lends to quick consultation: a new edition expanded with new sections, topics arranged alphabetically, and the latest research. Practitioners seeing feline patients will want it close at hand for quick analysis of feline behavior, dermatology problems, dentistry and even surgery. It packs in details yet makes them easy to find, assuring THE FELINE PATIENT a lasting place on any serious vet or vet library's reference shelf.

Systematic presentation and cover almost all important feline diseases. Good for quick reference by busy practitioner. This includes internal medicine, surgical procedures, radiology, ultrasound etc. Common poisonous plants' photograph are also included not only for vet but for owners to recognize. Clear and colored cytologic photographs also help in making diagnoses. This book is not so suitable for advanced academic purposes.

This book contains almost everything about diagnosing and treating diseases in cats. Where it falls short in my opinion is on prevention and nutrition. This book is a good reference if you have cats, or work with cats. It's written for vets though, so it's full of vet-jargon.
