  • Beyond the Bowl: Nutritional Management of Feline Chronic Pancreatitis With Dr. Katie Tolbert

    Beyond the Bowl: Nutritional Management of Feline Chronic Pancreatitis With Dr. Katie Tolbert
    Feb 17 2026
    In this episode of the PurrPodcast, Dr. Susan Little and Dr. Jolle Kirpensteijn welcome Dr. Katie Tolbert from Texas A&M University for a practical and science-driven discussion on chronic pancreatitis in cats, with a strong focus on the critical role nutrition plays in long-term management. Together, they explore why chronic pancreatitis is often subtle and multifactorial, how dietary composition influences inflammation and gastrointestinal stability, and—perhaps most importantly—how treats, supplements, and small “extras” can quietly unbalance a carefully formulated therapeutic diet. Even a few treats can dilute nutrient density, disrupt macronutrient balance, and compromise clinical progress, making owner education and dietary consistency essential parts of successful case management. This episode is packed with clinical pearls for veterinarians who want to optimize nutritional strategies, improve compliance, and better understand how precision feeding can significantly impact outcomes in feline chronic pancreatitis.

  • 2025 Cat News in Review with Stacey Gonzalez part 2

    2025 Cat News in Review with Stacey Gonzalez part 2
    Feb 3 2026
    2025 was a year of expansion and intellectual curiosity for the Purr Podcast. What began as a feline-focused platform continued to evolve into a broader scientific conversation space, without ever losing its clinical feline backbone. From deep dives into pancreatitis and complex GI disease to thought-provoking discussions about artificial intelligence in veterinary medicine, the show balanced rigor with relevance. The standout AI episode with Eric Garcia — where technology met everything from daily practice tools to the surprising world of bees — captured the spirit of the year: curious, future-focused, and just a little bit unexpected. The chemistry between hosts, the willingness to tackle complex themes, and the practical take-home insights kept engagement strong and conversations spilling into clinics and conferences alike. In short, 2025 wasn’t just another podcast year — it was a year of growth, sharper focus, and quietly positioning the Purr Podcast as a space where veterinary medicine meets bigger ideas.
