  Can stem cell therapy transform the future of feline medicine? In this special Purr Podcast episode, recorded at the AVMA Convention 2026, Dr. Susan Little and Dr. Jolle Kirpensteijn sit down with veterinary neurologist Dr. Rebecca Windsor, to examine one of the most exciting developments in veterinary medicine: off-the-shelf stem cell therapies for cats. This episode is sponsored by an educational grant from Gallant. What is the science behind the rapidly growing field of stem cell therapy? Dr. Rebecca Windsor, DVM, DACVIM, is a board-certified veterinary neurologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. In 2025, she joined Gallant, where she currently serves as the Vice President of Veterinary Affairs. She wants to discover what the future may hold for regenerative medicine in pets! Dr. Windsor explains what stem cells actually are, how they can regulate inflammation, tissue repair, and immune function. We discuss feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCGS), one of the most painful and frustrating diseases seen in cats. Learn why some cats don't respond to traditional treatments and why stem cell therapy is generating so much excitement as a potential new treatment option. What is the difference between older stem cell techniques and modern therapies? What are the current FDA regulations of veterinary stem cell therapies?

  Point of Care Ultrasound with Dr. Serge Chaloub

  Jul 7, 202639 minS9

  In this episode of the Purr Podcast, Dr. Serge Chalhoub joins Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle to talk about something that is quietly changing how veterinarians work up feline urinary disease: point-of-care ultrasound. Rather than sending a cat off for specialist imaging or guessing at what is happening in the bladder, point-of-care ultrasound puts answers right there in the exam room, in real time, without the wait and without the stress of extra procedures. Dr. Chalhoub, a board-certified internal medicine specialist at the University of Calgary whose clinical interests center on nephrology, urology, and minimally invasive diagnostics, walks through what bedside ultrasound actually shows, when it changes the clinical picture, and why it is becoming an essential skill for practitioners.
