SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/14/25 - Better Together: TNVR & Public Health - United Spay Alliance and Community Cats Podcast
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, we’ve been sterilizing community cats in order to help reduce their population\, with the primary goal of improving their wellbeing. But what if I told you there is an additional benefit to Trap\, Neuter\, Vaccinate\, Return (TNVR) programs – one that protects the health of pets and people in our communities? \nBy integrating rabies vaccinations into TNVR efforts\, we create a protective barrier against the disease\, reducing the risk of transmission from wildlife to both pets and people. This added layer of protections has garnered the attention and support of public health officials across the country. In this webinar\, we’ll also explore how TNVR programs can help prevent the spread of toxoplasmosis by community cats. \nUltimately\, TNVR not only reduces community cat populations but also plays a critical role in safeguarding public health. \nPresented by G. Robert Weedon\, DVM\, MPH\nG. Robert Weedon\, DVM\, MPH\, is a community cat and High Quality\, High Volume Spay-Neuter (HQHVSN) surgeon at Paws Plus Veterinary in Lakeland\, FL. He is the former Medical Director and HQHVSN Surgeon with the Animal Rescue Coalition in Sarasota\, FL\, and previously served as a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois\, where he trained veterinary students in HQHVSN techniques. Dr. Weedon also instructs veterinarians through his consulting company\, SNIP (Spay/Neuter Instructional Program). A dedicated advocate for pet overpopulation solutions\, Dr. Weedon is a member of the Veterinary Shortage Task Force at United Spay Alliance.

SUMMARY:Online Training - 1/15/25 - Surrender Prevention Certification Workshop Presented by Dr. Rachel Geller - Community Cats Podcast (small fee applies)
