Humane Talk (6-16-2014) #8025: Dr. Bill Folger is the founder of Memorial Cat Hospital in the Gulf Coast region near Houston, the only all feline practice in the world with four board certified feline specialists, of which there are fewer than 100 in the whole world. He talks about how the AVMA should be cooperative with HSUS, rather than perceiving it as a threat to their economic interests.
