Clinical Nutrition, Session 3

The Hyper Cat (Hyperthyroidism & Hypercalcemia)

Cats presenting with “hyper” problems can be diagnostically complex. This webinar walks through hyperthyroidism, primary and secondary hypercalcemia, concurrent disease, and the role of nutrition in stabilizing or managing these patients.

Learning outcomes:
Participants will learn to:

– Understand current diagnostic and treatment pathways for hyperthyroid and hypercalcemic cats.
– Interpret lab abnormalities in the context of nutritional status and energy balance.
– Use diet to support weight regulation, renal health, and mineral homeostasis.
– Communicate safe feeding strategies for compromised geriatric cats.
