We are always working to add to the content on the site to support the highest standards of veterinary education. As part of this commitment, we have just completed a comprehensive new section on [[Feline Behaviour|feline behaviour]] in collaboration with [http://www.ceva.com/en/ Ceva Santé Animale S.A.] authored by the [[Jon Bowen|respected expert Jon Bowen]] BVetMed DipAS(CABC) MRCVS. The content is now officially launched and made available to vet students, vets, vet nurses and pet owners through [[Feline Behaviour|WikiVet]]. There is currently limited information on the topic of feline behaviour, which the partnership seeks to address through the project.
==The Global Student Challenge - Feline Behaviour==
To increase awareness of the venture, WikiVet ran The Global Student Challenge; an online quiz for which the three leading participants were awarded a generous e-book prize provided by [http://www.wiley.com/go/vet Wiley].
The three leading participants were:
#Zoe Veysey from [[UK - Bristol Veterinary School, Bristol|UK - Bristol Veterinary School]] is a second year (going into third year) veterinary student who previously completed a BSc (Hons) degree in Zoology at Liverpool John Moores University. Zoe is originally from Holywell in North Wales and has been fortunate enough to have been able to work as an auxiliary nurse at a veterinary practice in North Wales for the last 6 years. Zoe hopes to work in mixed first opinion practice when she graduates although she also has an interest in internal feline medicine and of course feline behaviour!
#Lily Fraser from [[Hungary - Szent István University, Faculty of Veterinary Science]] is a 20 year old cat lover and second year vet student who was born and grew up in Italy with German and Scottish parents, but now lives in Budapest with her cat Lord Susan, who she adopted there, as well as a series of foster dogs. Lily hopes to go into mixed practice after she graduates and enjoys playing the bass guitar and going to concerts when she's not studying.
#Rebecca from the [[UK - Royal Veterinary College, London|RVC]] in London.
