California at Davis in 1989. She completed an internship at Angell Memorial Animal
Hospital (1990) and a residency in small animal internal medicine at North Carolina State
University (1993), where she also completed a PhD in immunology. Dr. Levy is a
Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and is currently an
associate professor with the small animal medicine service at the University of Florida.
She is the recipient of many honors including the “2005 Outstanding Woman
Veterinarian of the Year.” Dr. Levy’s research and clinical interests center on feline
infectious diseases, neonatal kitten health, and humane alternatives for cat population
control. She is the founder of two university-based feral cat spay/neuter programs that
have sterilized more than 20,000 cats since 1997 (Operation Catnip). These programs
form the basis for research on a variety of feral cat issues, including infectious diseases,
caretaker characteristics, colony dynamics, and anesthesia protocols. Dr. Levy also
maintains an active program investigating vaccines for potential immunocontraception in
cats.
