Unique Considerations in Feline Anesthesia With Dr. Mama

Cats aren't just small dogs, especially when it comes to anesthesia—and treating them as such can mean missing red flags that put patients at real risk. In this episode of the Partner Podcast, veterinary anesthesiologist Dr. Khursheed Mama joins Dr. Beth to highlight key feline-specific anesthesia considerations, from preoperative screening for occult hypertrophic cardiomyopathy to species-specific drug metabolism, airway management, and how to spot a recovery that's gone off track.
