Some veterinary students appear to misinterpret feline behavioral cues, resulting in frustration and poor success when performing basic handling. This article investigates the following in regard to veterinary students and feline handling (a) attitudes toward working with feline patients in the hospital environment; (b) experience of working with feline patients; (c) satisfaction in acquisition of feline handling and examination skills; and, (d) confidence in feline handling skills; and to explore influencing factors. An electronic questionnaire was circulated to 4th and final year veterinary students (May 2012) and final year students (June 2013) for anonymous voluntary completion. 173/293 students completed the questionnaire. Of final year respondents, 87/115 (75.7%) indicated that they enjoy interacting with cats in veterinary hospitals; 95/115 (82.6%) indicated that they were satisfied with their cat handling skills; 105/115 (91.3%) felt confident handling quiet and wriggly cats; significantly fewer 63/115 (54.8%) felt confident handling unpredictable cats (p less then 0.05). Factors significantly affecting confidence in handling unpredictable cats included frequency of examination practice during extra-mural studies (p less then 0.05), enjoyment of interacting with cats in veterinary hospitals (p less then 0.05), self-perceived understanding of feline behavior (p less then 0.05), self-perceived ability to interpret cats' behavioral expressions (p less then 0.05), satisfaction with cat handling skills (p less then 0.05) and perception of feline versus canine handling ability (p less then 0.05).Neuropathology is a challenging subject for most medical students.
