However, owner compliance begins with the veterinary team, not the owner.<\/p>\n<p>Begin by properly training your whole staff on the key points of preventive care: vital vaccinations, side effects of common ailments, and the frequency with which to bring a pet in. If clients hear how important preventive care is from your veterinary staff \u2014 from the receptionist to the doctor \u2014 they are more likely to schedule wellness checkups. Provide handouts about feline preventive care in the waiting room so that cat-owning clients have an opportunity to read about the importance of these visits. Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avma.org\/KB\/Resources\/Documents\/felinepreventiveguidelines_ppph.pdf\">this one<\/a> from the AAHA and AVMA.<\/p>\n<p>Another important part of feline owner compliance is having a feline-friendly practice. Owners are much more likely to feel comfortable taking their cat to the vet if they can see their cat is comfortable as well. Founded by the American Association of Feline Practitioners, becoming a <a href=\"https:\/\/catfriendly.com\/keep-your-cat-healthy\/cat-friendly-practice\/\">Cat Friendly Practice\u00ae<\/a> can
