International Cat Care names award winners

International Cat Care (iCatCare) hosted its Annual Awards ceremony at Kensington Roof Gardens in London on 14 July. It celebrated the companies and individuals which have made a real difference to cats in the last twelve months.

This included the presentation of four new ‘Easy to Give’ awards (plus two for product updates) and five new ‘Cat Friendly’ awards.

The afternoon also celebrated three individuals with the highest marks on the charity’s distance education courses and announced the twelve winners from its 2017 Photography Competition, including the overall winner. The awards were supported by Ceva, Agria and Royal Canin.

Easy to Give Award Winners 2017

The Easy to Give Awards recognised the commitment made by pharmaceutical companies in making it easier to give medication to cats. iCatCare recognises that medicines which are easier to administer make life less stressful for vets, owners and feline patients alike and ensure better compliance.
