CW: CW compassion fatigue
This episode really kicked me in the feels and then left me with a lot to think about.
I worked in animal care as a pet sitter and a vet tech and I'm familiar with compassion fatigue. My first job out of school was at an animal shelter and I walked into a situation where all the veterinary staff was totally burnt out and in the process of quitting. I looked at the outgoing lead tech and knew that would be me in a couple of years if I stayed. But I loved that job. But it really did take as much as you were willing to give it, and then some. A move to New Zealand the following year removed that conundrum for me.
I wonder if this is why I never got a pet while I was in the pet care industry.
I wonder how compassion fatigue interacts with autistic burnout.
I wonder if there's parallels to be made with the kind of burn out parents experience when they don't get the support they need.
Link is to a podcast called Proxy, an episode called "Jane doesn't like her dogs"
CW for the episode: animal death and suicidal ideation (brief mention)

Favorite consult today: A Chilean blue eagle (goes by other names) with concerns of respiratory disease. I think it may just be fat, but a bit more work will prove this or not. I've never seen one of these up close so, naturally, I'm jealous of my colleague! XD

🐶🧪 A new treatment for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome uses a modified toxin to increase muscle tone in the mouth and throat
The process helps keep airways open during physical activity and reduces the need for invasive corrective surgeries. Initial tests on six #bulldogs showed measurable improvements in breathing efficiency and exercise capacity.

I had to literally smh and lol this morning: Two consults involving chickens wherein one only presented dorsal-ventral x-ray view and the other case only presented a lateral view. Too bad I couldn't combine the two cases to get one good set of images. It makes it very difficult to get a 3D concept of the organs and bones with only one 2D view. Veterinarians know this and pretty much always get at least 2 views of any other animal they work on, yet it's so utterly common for them to only do one view of a bird. I have no idea why that is. If you're a vet and you're going through all the trouble/trauma of getting radiographs, do it right! You'll thank yourself (and so will I!).

We recently adopted a cat. He is a black cat, but his fur is ticked. It is black at the tips of the hairs but white at the bottoms.
It also is crimped / wavy; so are his whiskers. Is this similar to American Wirehair hair and whiskers? I looked for close-up images, but was unable to find any.

In the span of my career: First there was barely legible doctor writing in hard copy records. Then typing took over and it was legible, but barely understandable at times dt haste, poor grammar, and atrocious spelling. Now doctors are speaking their consult messages and notes and letting AI type it for them... and it's disturbingly nonsensical at times. But, hey, the computer knows what it's doing and fixes it, right? /s I just wonder when we'll reach this golden age of communication for the sake of clarity & focus, and not merely for saving time and harvesting data.

Researchers have identified the molecule artemin and its associated signaling pathways as a potential biological marker and therapeutic target for degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis) in cats. Elevated concentrations of artemin in feline blood directly correlate with radiographic evidence of the disease, demonstrating that #cats share underlying biological pain mechanisms with humans and dogs.

In January and February, I was contracted to surgically implant trackers in 15 mallards in Louisiana, by the Louisiana Waterfowl Working Group. Here's a movement map from March 2nd showing their dispersal north. This is the second year I've assisted this organization. In time, the pooled information will help in the management of duck harvest and land management/conservation efforts.

Wow there's been a lot of raptor cases for me to answer lately on Veterinary Information Network. Though I don't wish harm on any birds, it is nice to have the interaction over birds of prey (I don't see as many these days in practice), so I'm loving that. Here's a radiograph (shared with permission) of a bald eagle's head and neck from the side. More eyeball than brain, but don't let that fool you. Birds have far more neurons per cubic millimeter than mammals!

"Cats cannot catch colds from humans and vice versa.
Caused by viruses like feline herpesvirus and calicivirus, cold symptoms in cats include sneezing and runny nose.
Cats catch colds through droplets in air, direct contact, and shared items, and stress can increase susceptibility.
Treatment may include medication, supportive care, and keeping your cat comfortable at home.
Regular vaccinations, good hygiene, and stress reduction can help prevent cat colds. "
https://www.pethealthclub.com/uk/pet-advice/can-cats-catch-colds"You may have heard that these conditions are rare in the UK.
They’re rare because of vaccination."
"In a study involving nearly half a million vaccinated cats, only a small fraction, about 0.5%, experienced adverse reactions to a vaccine.
[These reactions indicate] an unusual immune response in some cats." https://www.pethealthclub.com/uk/pet-advice/common-questions-about-kitten-vaccinationsWe can only limit harm by learning the risks *and adapt our behaviours to reduce their impacts*. https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951408 https://plantcityanimalhospital.com/blog/cat-has-a-lump-after-vaccine/ https://www.vets4pets.com/pet-health-advice/cat-advice/vaccinating-your-cat/
