Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Feline internal medicine is a field of veterinary internal medicine that specifically deals with the pathophysiological peculiarities of the feline species and addresses the latest issues, advances, and therapies in feline care. Feline internal medicine includes a wide variety of specialistic branches such as endocrinology, cardiology, urology, nephrology, pneumology, gastroenterology, infectious and parasitic diseases, oncology, clinical nutrition, and behavioral medicine. Furthermore, a growing interest has recently involved feline geriatric medicine with a focus on the comorbidities affecting elderly cats and specific geriatric care.
This Special Issue of Veterinary Sciences, “Advances in Feline Internal Medicine”, will publish original articles, brief communications, case reports, and reviews on the latest issues of the aforementioned topics on Feline Internal Medicine.
Based on your expertise in this field, we think you can effectively contribute to the success of this initiative; we hope that this collection will stimulate closer collaboration between researchers in veterinary and medical sciences in addressing this important topic on small animal internal medicine.
