	fab feral cat manual

Many people are drawn to help feral cats and usually they haven't planned to do so! They come from a variety of different backgrounds and often have the passion and drive to get involved but not the knowledge or experience to know where to start or how to deal with the inevitable problems which arise. However there are those who have mastered both the art and the science of working with these wonderful animals and have made a huge difference to their welfare.

Working with ferals is not the same as rescuing and rehoming pet or stray cats - it needs a very different attitude and approach and a new set of skills.

Under FAB's banner, the various authors of the Feral Cat Manual bring together a unique mix of expertise and experience in an effort to pass on years of knowledge and tried and tested methods.

This manual aims to provide the best information to those who want to help feral cats - so you don't have to learn the hard way.

	fab wellcat log book
As an owner you can have a huge impact on the health and wellbeing of your cat by undertaking routine preventive health care at all stages of its life - from kittenhood through to geriatric. This gives the best chance of preventing problems arising or, at least, maximising the detection of any illnesses early on. We have produced the WellCatlog for you and your cat. It is specific to your individual cat and packed with practical tips and advice. In the centre you will find the WellCat Health Chart: - Use it to determine what routine health checks your cat should be undergoing and when; - Use it to record and monitor various details relating to your cat's health - bodyweight, body condition score, results of any tests and examinations, and so on. By finding out and recording what is normal for your cat, you will be in a much better position to spot any changes that may need investigating. How to get your copy of the WellCatlog Download for free Order a hard copy for only £2.50 Ask your vet for a copy Also available from selected catteries, cat or pet stores

a new focus for FAB’s anniversary year

In 2008 the FAB Journal will have a new identity. Taking into account member feedback and people’s increasing needs and demand for information in the cat care field, we have redesigned the Journal to produce a bright, clean,
practical publication which we hope that you will love.

The quality of the information will not be altered, just targeted to meet the requirements that you outlined in your replies to the questionnaire sent out at the end of 2006. Many of you work with cats on a professional basis and want to maintain or raise standards of care in your area of concern. Similarly we know that our pet cat owning members are extremely dedicated and knowledgeable and also want information on a wider range of subjects. We have been working on this project for some time now and
hope you like it as much as we do. If you would like to see specific topics covered, let us know.

The first issue of catcare will appear in March 2008. During the year we will have regular features from our veterinary expert panel and our behaviour expert panel and we will publish the answers to frequently asked questions in our regular cat clinic feature. There will be a wide variety of articles on
topics such as cat housing and handling. The WellCat programme will be introduced, and of course many of the old familiar features of the FAB Journal such as information sheets and case histories will still be there.

FREE to FAB members

The result of two years' work and the contribution of over 1800 cat owners, the results make fascinating reading.
