Cats,cats,cats in Ayuttaya, Thailand

I just got back from Thailand 2 days ago.This was my second trip to Thailand. I attended an awesome continuing education(CE) given by a professor from Australia. The CE was all about cats.The topics were about optimal preventative health in cats, diseases of respiratory tract, skin, renal and diseases associated with cat fights as well as interesting topics about feline infectious peritonitis(FIP) and lymphoma mostly associated to feline immunodeficiency virus(FIV) and feline leukemia virus(FeLV). There are quite a few updates on feline medicine. Something really amazed and new to me is that we can actually introduce "natural food" to cat for example raw chicken wing or neck. To all the honourable vets out there, you can actually try out with this to your cats. It actually helps to prevent periodontal disease in cats.
We spend 2 nights in Ayuttaya then headed to Bangkok right after the CE. Oh yeah,just for your information that I didn't miss out the Thai massage as well as the Thai food(eg tom yum kung, green curry and som tam).The food was terrific. Bangkok is definitely a shopping paradise. This time I didn't go for sight seeing instead spending one day in Bangkok just to shop in a shopping mall called NBK then flew back to KL on that night itself(Monday night). Completely fun but tiring trip.
