Great posters on summer research from @uwvetmed DVM students today! First up, Krista Li with her @ksufleateam results: URI symptoms in owned cats are not worse in homes w high #flea burden (and, happily, no #SARSCoV2 in cats around Tampa FL area this summer!)

For #SAIMjournalclub this AM, we put a recent epi study of fever in juvenile dogs (thx @Bristol_Vets) in context with other epi studies of fever in dogs.
Now we need this study in 1st opinion practice...must be SO different from the referral population. A job for @VetCompass?!
@stephenrdoyle Yep I’ve wondered about this with fleas! You often see Ctenocephalides felis = Ct. felis. But in my own manuscripts I’ve always just written it as standard C. felis and no one (aka no reviewer) seems to mind. 🤷♀️
