A HARD COPY VERSION IS NOW AVAILABLE
A Highly Acclaimed Book by Dr. K Leann Yoda-Bachler
ChocoCat is about to see her Veterinary Dental specialist and she is very scared! What will happen to her when she gets there? Will it hurt? Will it be scary? Buster, her friend (and later Child Life Dog for Children's Hospital) comes to help ChocoCat get through the initial exam and later needed dental work. See how friendship conquers all!
ChocoCat and Buster are back and excited to attend Cat-Con in Meow-waukee, Wisconsin. They need to fly Paw-Nited Airlines in order to get there and ChocoCat has never flown. Captain Cat Daddy is able to help ChocoCat and Buster by educating them about what happens during a commercial flight. He goes through the steps a pilot takes before, during, and after the flight to ensure safety for all passengers. Will Buster use his newly acquired Child-Life knowledge he learned at Children's to help ChocoCat cope during the flight? Will ChocoCat be able to enjoy flying so she and Buster can attend Cat-Con next year in Meow-Ami? Read on to find out.

Currently serving as an Attending Pediatric Dentist at Children's Hospital Colorado and Denver Health Pediatric Dental Residencies. I teach to those who are specializing in treating children, teens, and those with special health care needs. My expertise lies in pediatric dentistry, public health dentistry, and epidemiology. I am supported by a solid academic foundation, including a DMD from UAB School of Dentistry, an MSPH in Epidemiology from the UAB School of Public Health, and an MSD from the University of Washington. With experience in public health and pediatric dentistry, I have researched the intersection of oral health and epidemiology, culminating in a master's thesis on the impact of poor oral health on child mortality. I have recently continued my academic journey in bioethics at Loyola University in Chicago in January 2026. Outside of work, I am a partner, dedicated wife, and ski bud to pilot and author, David Bachler, a Captain with United Airlines.
