Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a viral disease caused by feline coronavirus and is deadly if left untreated. Treatment is increasingly available in Europe, but how can it be prevented in catteries to reduce the risk of FIP? That is the topic of the upcoming webinar on 2 April, jointly organised by the FVE, the Federation of European Companion Animal Veterinary Associations (Fecava) and Ghent University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine.
The webinar brings together leading experts to discuss current knowledge, guidelines and practical prevention strategies. A panel discussion will allow participants to gain insights from multiple perspectives. The expert panel will consist of:
- Ann Criel, Fecava President and UEVP Vice president
- Hans Nauwynck, Ghent University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine
- Eric Van Tilburgh, Animal Welfare Department, Government of Flanders
- Diane Addie, University of Glasgow Veterinary School and ABCD member
- Demetris Epaminondas, Cyprus Veterinary Council
The webinar is free and will be held on Thursday 2 April from 14:00 to 15:30 CET. Please register here.
