SUMMARY:Life and Limb: Leg and Paralysis Issues in Kittens
DESCRIPTION:In rescue\, almost by definition\, we see kittens that face health challenges\, including limb abnormalities. In the past\, others simply said we cannot or will not help\, but YOU can with a little knowledge\, help from your veterinarian\, and some elbow grease. \nLeg and paralysis issues are not uncommon in kittens; from the simple “twisted leg syndrome” to the more serious traumatic spinal issues. \nIn this free webinar\, Susan Spaulding\, also known as ‘Kitten Mom’ will discuss how you can work with your veterinarian to do as much as possible to help these kittens. She will describe protocols you can start early to help achieve the best outcomes\, and she will touch on some of the ways you can modify common items to fit your tiny kitten. She will also discuss tools like the Assisi Loop and laser therapy that can aid in the healing process. \nPresenter: Susan Spaulding \nClick here to register for this free webinar! \nReturn to Event Calendar →

SUMMARY:SKIP: Saving Kittens In Partnership
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this FREE guest National Kitten Rescue webinar hosted by NKC to learn more about an innovative program that will help save vulnerable kittens at risk of being euthanized. This webinar will inspire you to rescue and rehabilitate the most at-risk of kittens\, the ones that are dying every day upon arrival at shelters. \nThanks to a generous grant from The Humane Society of the United States\, the Newborn Kitten Rescue has teamed with The National Kitten Coalition to produce a Toolkit for you to start or adapt your rescue to focus on these ‘last chance’ kittens that need us the most. This webinar will walk you through the highlights of that toolkit\, which is available on the NKC and HSUS websites. \nIf you can’t join us for the live presentation\, don’t worry! Sign-up anyway\, because a recording of this\, and other webinars\, will be available on NKC’s eLearning Center no later than 2 weeks after they air. \nClick here to register for this free webinar!

SUMMARY:What Color is My Cat?
DESCRIPTION:A colorful\, fun presentation\, based on Cat Genetics “101”\, describing the fundamentals of identifying cat colors and patterns. \nThe presentation also discusses some of the most popular breeds of cats. With less than 5% of companion cats being an actual “breed” of cat\, the common model of describing dogs in terms of combinations of “breeds”\, doesn’t work in the world of cats. \nParticipants learn that “tabbies” are not a breed of cat but all cats are tabby cats! What’s the difference between a tortie and a calico\, why do some white kittens have a little black mark on the top of their heads\, what do all pointed cats have in common? Participants learn the answers and much more. \nSpeaker: Vickie Fisher\, President\, EveryCat Health Foundation \nClick here to register for this free webinar!
