Maddie's Institute
Welcome! Maddie's InstituteSM is a program of Maddie's Fund, the nation's leading funder of shelter medicine education. Maddie's Institute brings cutting edge shelter medicine information from universities and animal welfare leaders to shelter veterinarians, managers and staff as well as private practice veterinarians, rescue groups and community members to increase lifesaving of homeless dogs and cats community-wide.
To accomplish this goal, we're presenting a series of free webcasts as well as articles, videos, and other materials, all available in this section. You can also sign up for our free e-newsletter, Advance, here
We are pleased to present Your Secret Feline Decoder Ring: Feline Behavior Assessments with Maddie's Institute consultant Susan Krebsbach, DVM. Dr. Krebsbach will give an overview of the unique behavior characteristics of the cat, what those characteristics are telling us, as well as how to use that information in formal feline behavior assessments. The on-demand version of this webcast will be ready shortly and can be accessed via computer or mobile device.
