International Cat Care launches
Rebrand for cat charity at congress

What was formerly known as the Feline Advisory Bureau (FAB) has relaunched as International Cat Care at the BSAVA Congress 2013.

The rebrand launch took place as the first day of congress began, with the unveiling of the International Cat Care stand.

International Cat Care is a charity that aims to help improve the lives of millions of cats, both in the UK and internationally. The rebrand is hoped to more clearly reflect this work.

Further streamlining the charity's work, are the three core areas that
International Cat Care covers - cat care advice, cat care in action and cat care for vets. Each individual area helps vets, professionals and consumers engage with the charity.

The rebrand also comes with a brand new website, which continues to provide information and advice on cat care.

Upon unveiling the new identity, BSAVA Congress attendees were given a glass of celebratory champagne and cupcakes.

Bradley Viner, vice president
, said: "International Cat Care is bigger and better, whilst maintaining the charity's core values of informing cat owners about welfare and care".

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
