  • 089 Holiday Choices for Cats – Home or Cattery?
    Episode 89 – Holiday Choices for Cats – Home or Cattery?   We all want what is best for our feline friends and that includes ensuring their happiness, safety and behavioural health while we are on holiday or traveling. But what IS actually best for them? ·         To stay at home in their familiar surroundings and territory? ·         To stay in a cattery where they will have company and be monitored at all times? ·         Or, should they even travel with you where possible?   The answer is, there is no “one size fits all approach” when it comes to behaviour and what is best for each individual. In this episode, Nora and I chat through the many positive options there are to keep our kitties safe and happy during holiday times, always keeping in mind their natural preferences and behavioural needs.     If you want to learn more about Feline Behaviour then either: 1.      Watch this amazing 1-hour long Masterclass on Feline Behaviour and the 5 Pillars of a Healthy Feline Environment: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/happy-cat   OR   2.      Sign up for my amazing Learn To Speak Cat course right here: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-cat   And use the Discount Code SUMMER50 to get 50% off Learn To Speak Cat this summer 2025!   We really hope you enjoy this episode; it is packed with so much information!   If you liked this episode of the show, The Pet Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!

  • 088 Serotonin Syndrome - What you need to know!
    Episode 88 – Serotonin Syndrome - What you need to know!   Serotonin Syndrome, also known as Serotonin Toxicity, is the most severe side effect of serotonergic medication and can potentially be fatal if not treated and managed. Therefore, understandably, many vets are very cautious when it comes to prescribing serotonergic agents and especially when combining serotonergic agents such as an SSRI and, for example, trazodone. ·         But, how frequent is this side effect in practice? ·         What are the signs you should be looking out for? ·         What can you teach your caregivers to do in terms of monitoring to screen for mild signs of Serotonin Syndrome? ·         What medications, aside from psychopharmaceutical medications, can cause Serotonin Syndrome? ·         What are the Differential Diagnoses for Serotonin Syndrome? ·         And how do you treat a pet with Serotonin Toxicity?   I talk about all this and more in this episode!   Here are the studies I mention in the episode: 1.      Indrawirawan, Y., & McAlees, T. (2014). Tramadol toxicity in a cat: Case report and literature review of serotonin syndrome.

  • 086 Behaviour Signs and Neurotransmitters
    Episode 86 – Behaviour Signs and Neurotransmitters   When I first started out in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine, knowing which Behaviour Medication to choose for any given patients was a real struggle. I didn’t really know what to base my choices on, often reached for the same medication over and over again without really knowing why and just hoping that I’d made the right decision. Sound familiar? As I progressed through my residency, I started to understand how behavioural signs are correlated with neurotransmitters in the brain and how to make really smear medication choices to affect these neurotransmitter levels. In this episode I chat through exactly this and give some examples of how to start thinking about which medications to choose according to the signs the patient is showing.   Here’s the FREE PDF download I mention in the episode: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/behaviour-signs-nts     And here is the link to PSYCHOACTIVE – PRACTICAL VETERINARY PSYCHOPHARMACOLOGY https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/psychoactive   This course is epic.  This course is my soul's work and contains the wisdom I want to share with you after safely and effectively using Veterinary Psychopharmacology in hundreds of my patients.
