Episode 11 covers the rabies virus and it's effect on both animals and people. Rabies is a fatal, zoonotic disease of animals and humans. Most people are exposed by bats or cats, especially stray cats. Animals that are infected with the rabies virus will express bizzare behavioral signs, sometimes being aggressive and biting/attacking people and other animals or animals will be more quiet, may stagger about and can vocalize.

Spay/Neuter: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Clinical Signs ·

2023/01/04

In this, the tenth episode of the Clinical Signs podcast I cover the pro's and con's of gonadectomy on our dogs and cats. There are potential acute, short term consequences from the anesthesia and the surgical procedure itself. I am focused here on the long term benefits and consequences of removing the ovaries or testes. Long term benefits (The Good) include an increased lifespan, a large decrease (almost 100%) in mammary cancer in females spayed before their first estrus cycle, a decrease in males

2022/11/29

This episode dives in to Feline Parvo Virus (FPV). Known by other names such as feline distemper, feline plague and feline infectious enteritis, I prefer FPV. This is a serious contagious and infectious disease of cats primarily infecting kittens and unvaccinated or partially vaccinted cats. It is ubiquitous and worldwide. Cats are less likely to survive a serious infection than dogs, by 50%. Recovered or vaccinated cats have lifelong immunity. I have posted several links below for further

The Pulse, What is It?

Clinical Signs ·

2022/11/24

In this episode, I discuss the what the pulse is, how it originates, where to locate it , how to feel it and pulse quality. Of course taking an accurate pulse and feeling the difference in pulse quality is based on you practicing the technique. An easy way to do this is on yourself or if you have a cooperative dog or cat.I have also posted the references below . All sources are textbooks. You can also do a web search, there are plenty of references on this topic.Note, during my discussion about

The Fountain of Youth?

Clinical Signs ·

2022/11/10

In this episode I give my opinion on a recent magazine article concerning the development of a pill to increase longevity in people and dogs. Apparently cats are too difficult to figure out how to accomplish this which translate in to it costs too much for the expected economic return. Welcome to the world of 2022, medical science fiction .As I come across news stories or articles like this I will comment and provide my opinion. If you have any new or magazine articles you would like me to review

Making a Diagnosis

In episode 4, I cover how a veterinarian goes about making a diagnosis. There are many formal steps to this process. The steps are: 1-the chief complaint (the problem or problems briefly summed up), 2-the history of the problem(s) and the animal, 3-a physical exam, 4-a list of possible diseases is generated, called differential diagnosises, 5-diagnostic testing, 6-rule in vs rule out (possible diagnosises ruled in or out based on test results), 7-a definitive diagnosis is made (hopefully, but not
