Join us for the fourth and final webinar in the Feline Focused Learning Track, a four-part continuing education series exploring the unique health, behaviour, and care needs of feline patients.This session will explore the connection between feline overweight and obesity (O&O) and diabetes mellitus, reviewing the risk factors and pathogenesis of both conditions and how this knowledge can support obesity prevention, early intervention, and improved patient outcomes. Participants will examine modern approaches to diabetes management, including nutrition, insulin therapy, and SGLT-2 inhibitors, while exploring how treatment and monitoring can exist along a continuum of care designed to support caregivers, enhance quality of life, and help cats thrive. The session will also highlight the critical role of Registered Veterinary Technologists (RVTs) in the long-term management of feline diabetes. From client education and nutritional counselling to treatment monitoring, caregiver support, and follow-up care, RVTs are instrumental in helping families navigate the challenges of diabetes management and achieve the best possible outcomes for their cats. Whether you're looking to strengthen your clinical knowledge or enhance the support you provide to feline patients and their caregivers, this final session will leave you with practical strategies you can immediately apply in practice. This session is approved for 1 hour of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credit for RVTs by the ABVMA. This webinar will be recorded. Registration Closes: October 28, 2026 Members: $10.00 Speaker:Dr. Kelly St. Denis, MSc, DVM, DABVP (Feline Practice)
