Cats are masters at hiding illness and pain, leaving caregivers and veterinary team members in the dark on many occasions. In this session we will discuss common causes of pain in cats and how to recognize and treat them. We will also review options for pain questionnaires and validated pain scales, including The Feline Grimace Scale.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the many causes of pain in the domestic cat
