A new study conducted by Bayer HealthCare, in collaboration with the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP), reveals significant opportunities for veterinary practice. The Bayer Veterinary Care Usage Study III: Feline Findings conducted in November 2012 is the third in a series of studies sponsored by Bayer HealthCare LLC Animal Health Division.
