iCatCare opens World Feline Congress 2026 with flexible tickets

International Cat Care has opened registration for World Feline Congress 2026, its flagship feline CPD meeting, with a revised format that splits the three-day program into daily clinical themes and adds one-day ticket options alongside full-congress passes. The event is scheduled for June 26-28, 2026, at the International Convention Centre Wales in Newport, UK. According to iCatCare’s announcement, each day will focus on a different topic — gastrointestinal disease, respiratory disease, and cardiology — and pricing is being held at 2025 rates. A call for abstracts published by iCatCare also shows the meeting will include poster and oral abstract sessions, with accepted abstracts published in the congress proceedings and in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery.

Why it matters: For veterinary professionals, the biggest practical shift is accessibility. A themed, day-by-day structure makes it easier to send clinicians for targeted CPD in areas most relevant to caseload and service mix, while one-day tickets lower the cost and time barrier for practices that can’t spare a team member for a full three-day absence. The abstract call suggests the congress will again serve as a pipeline for clinically relevant feline research, spanning original studies, case series, and case reports, with submissions reviewed by an independent scientific committee. That combination of structured education and research dissemination reinforces the event’s role as a focal point for feline-focused continuing education in Europe. (icatcare.org)

What to watch: Watch for the full speaker lineup, final ticketing details, and abstract decisions, which iCatCare says are due to be communicated by April 20, 2026. (icatcare.org)
