054 Street Cats – Should we “Rescue” or “Home” them?
Manage episode 447422779 series 3562442
Episode 54 – Street Cats – Should we “Rescue” or “Home” them?
This is a big topic with many opinions to consider from different stakeholders.
Nora and I chat about our experiences of this topic here in the UAE and about some of the cases we have seen where cats that previously lived on the street were brought into homes and developed Behaviour Problems as a result.
We also chat about the unique characteristics of the Arabian Mau cat that is found in this part of the world and how their unique-ness affects their behavioural needs.
I talk about genetics, epigenetics and how the socialization period may affect some of these patients and Nora tells us all about her Arabian Mau cat, Freddie, and what he taught her.
Find out also how the “5 Freedoms” framework helps us assess the welfare of our patients.
We understand that this is a controversial topic and that there are no right or wrong answers, however, we do need to always consider the welfare and quality of life of all our patients and indeed that animals that we invite into our homes and lives.
Here is the resource that I mention in the episode:
Ellis, S. L. H., Rodan, I., Carney, H. C., Heath, S., Rochlitz, I., Shearburn, L. D., Sundahl, E., & Westropp, J. L. (2013). AAFP and ISFM Feline Environmental Needs Guidelines. Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 15(3), 219–230. https://doi.org/10.1177/1098612X13477537
