Educational Videos for Cat Owners 

The AAFP is pleased to bring you two video series designed to help cat caregivers understand the importance of regular veterinary care and how Cat Friendly Practices® (CFP) can help create a positive veterinary experience. These videos can be linked on your practice website, including in newsletters, and shared on social media.

The first series shows how CFPs are able to provide the highest quality of care while showing caregivers a commitment to address the health needs and special considerations of feline patients.

The 3-part series includes:

Video 1 – Cat Friendly Practice® Can Reduce Stress of Vet Visits

Video 2 – Why do Cats Need Routine Veterinary Checkups

Video 3 – A Cat Friendly Practice® Helps Me and My Cats


1. Cat Friendly Practices® Can Reduce Stress of Vet Visits

This video kicks off a three-part series about the Cat Friendly Practice® (CFP) Program with a brief overview that educates caregivers about how CFPs can help their cats by providing a high quality of care, as well as tips to reduce stress at the veterinary practice. For more information or to find a CFP, please visit catvets.com/cfp.


2. Why do Cats Need Routine Veterinary Checkups

This video discusses what veterinarians do and look for during a yearly veterinary checkup. During physical examinations, veterinarians can often detect conditions that may affect your cat’s health long before they become a major issue so they can be managed or cured before they become painful or more costly. CFPs provide many beneficial services beyond treating a cat when they are sick or for emergency visits. 


3. A Cat Friendly Practice® Helps Me and My Cats

Concluding our series is a video featuring a firsthand account from a cat caregiver who brings her cats to a CFP. Her testimonial underscores how regular veterinary checkups at a CFP can lead to early detection of potential health issues, ultimately contributing to a longer, healthier life for cats.
