    Three vets will discuss different aspects of first aid for

      * How to approach and transport an injured animal
      * Wound treatment and how to manage bleeding
      * What to do in case of poisoning
      * How to recognize life threatening diseases such as Gastric
        Dilation and urinary obstruction in cats.
      * Artificial respiration, CPR, and how to dislodge foreign
        bodies from a choking animal are among the techniques
        that will be demonstrated.
    
    MSPCA is located 350 S Huntington St, Boston.  Angell Memorial

    If anyone is interested in carpooling - perhaps they'd like to
    meet me in Braintree and we'll drive in together.

    I went to the lecture last night and it was VERY interesting and
    helpful.  Much of what they spoke about was directed at dogs, but
    alot was equally applicable to cats.
    
    I did want to enter the following phone number.  It is open to
    vets and laypersons alike.  There is a $25 charge to call the
    number tho so try your vet first.
    
    ANIMAL POISON CONTROL:  1-800-548-2423  
    
    If I get a chance, I'll type up my notes and enter them here.

    The hall was full - maybe 100-150 people.  We did post a note about
    this the Friday before the lecture.  If we hear of any more I'll
    let you all know.
