If you’re an animal lover, chances are you’re a fan of veterinarians too. They keep our pets happy and healthy, and they are our go-to resources when little Spot swallows something she shouldn’t have or Pickles comes home limping on a hurt paw. And while being a vet can be incredibly stressful and challenging, it can also, thankfully, be extremely rewarding.
Below, you'll find some of the most adorable, hilarious and wholesome moments vets have experienced in their clinics that might make you wish you had chosen a career in animal health care, as well as an interview we were lucky enough to receive from Dr. Julie Cappel, the Veterinary Life Coach. Be sure to upvote the pics you find particularly heartwarming, and feel free to share any personal stories in the comments if you are a vet or have ever worked in a veterinarian office. Then, if you’re interested in checking out another Bored Panda article celebrating all of the precious patients vets get to see every day, look no further than right here.

This Swan Hugging The Vet Who Saved Its Life

It's awesome that they do this. So many animals express affection the same way we do :0

Standing up, they can tap you with their beaks between your shoulder blades. I used to go to a lake in Orlando, Florida that had over 50 swans. Once a swan followed me and pecked me on the back to get my attention. He just wanted more of the animal crackers that I had. Trust me, all the people watching had a good laugh when I turned around and jumped sideways. 😂

Young Koala Came To Us With Dog Fight Wounds And I Noticed She Had A Lactating Nipple. It Took A Full Day, But We Were Able To Find And Reunite Her With Her Baby
DC 3 years ago
I can't help it, but Koalas always look kinda artificial to me ... like a plushy or so ... like a toy ... well, and they're cute of course, and should never experience any harm of course ... sadly they do ... sadly, they're not THAT bright - whenever frightened, climbing up the tree even higher is their response to it.
To learn more about what it's really like to be a veterinarian, we reached out to Dr. Julie Cappel, or the Veterinary Life Coach. When it comes to what Dr. Cappel loves most about being a vet, she told Bored Panda that it's the variety of tasks and challenges that she faces every day. "The people may be lovely or terrible, but in all cases they love their pets like family, and that makes our job so rewarding," she shared. "We get to serve the pet owning public in a way that is unmatched in any other profession. The relationship that we form with the pets and their families lasts a lifetime and we share the highs and the lowest lows. Veterinarians are unique and wonderful."
We were also curious if Dr. Cappel has any favorite patients or any particularly fond memories with them. "I love all of my patients - except the ones that try to bite me," she says. "In particular, I love the parrots because they interact in unique ways - they can talk. So sometimes they say funny things or just act out when they hear my voice. One of my parrot patients says, 'I'm scared' when I walk into the room with her. Another says, 'Pet the birdie! Don't eat the birdie'. I also am very fond of all the puppies and kittens. They always bring excitement to our hospital day because they are so cute and happy, and we get to watch them grow up and capture their families' hearts."

"I had a client show me her knee surgery scar by dropping her pants in the waiting room. I had a gentleman come in with pet sugar gliders that he released in the room and they were jumping and gliding all over our heads, in and out of our pockets, terrorizing the veterinary technician. There have been many pets left on our doorstep over the years, some with notes attached asking us to find them a home."
We then asked Dr. Cappel what she thinks the most important qualities of a wonderful vet are. "I think all veterinarians are great and uniquely special," she shared. "It takes a special kind of person to take on the responsibilities that veterinary medicine brings and also keep their sense of humor and curiosity."

Aisling Raye 3 years ago
I strongly believe that behavioral issues with dogs are caused by the owner and not by the dog. For example, my in-laws have a pit and she is honestly the sweetest dog I have ever had the pleasure of meeting (maybe second sweetest because my ex had a Great Dane that I loved so much that I think he was the reason I stayed with that ex for longer than I should have.) I also think there is something to be said about small breeds being aggressive because of their size, but again I also think that owners of small dogs are less inclined to train them well so that still really falls on the owner.

Cheesecake Goes To The Vet
Rannveig Ess 3 years ago
I hope the OP reads this :: Some cats suffer from chronic constipation. This type of belly can be constipation, too. A lot of this is due to the (crappy) dry food they are given and also not enough liquids and also age. Make SURE your cat is pooping every day. Every day! if they don't poop in 3 days, you have a problem. It can be $$$ and also cost your cat its life. Try to feed them mostly good, canned food if you can afford it. If not, try to add a big spoonful of it a day to your cat's diet at least to get moisture in them. Cats don't drink a lot of water, but you can soak dry food in it (don't let it get moldy) Give them licks of butter, canned tuna fish water, a lick or 3 of coconut milk. your vet can give them Lactulose which is an oily sugar that keeps them going. I heard the "your cat is fat" stuff for years until he almost died from impacted bowels (the vet didn't believe me when I said he doesn't eat that much) So, please watch..pooping is good :)

"There is so much pressure put on us from the pet owning public, and our pay scale is much below that of our human medical counterparts," Dr. Cappel added. "We also are experiencing a severe shortage of veterinarians and technicians, which adds to the daily pressure and subtracts from our work/life balance. In order to be an excellent and healthy veterinarian, someone has to have a solid appreciation for themselves and have the ability to set boundaries in order to not allow the 'negative' clients bring them down. Veterinarians also need to design a life outside of veterinary medicine that includes strong family and friends, and mental health support."

I worked as a vet assistant for 15 years. While you are correct that sometimes cats purr when they're stressed, they're much more likely not to purr. In this case, that's just a happy kitten! A lot of babies, especially male orange tabbies, are happy being touched by humans and haven't developed a fear of the vet yet. 😸

Cat Fact: Cats indeed purr when stressed because purring calms them. It’s a self-soothing mechanism. Purring = feel good, so let’s try purring to induce feel good.

"Veterinarians are incredible people, doing a very difficult job," Dr. Cappel added. "I would love for people to realize how the profession is struggling, so that they can appreciate what veterinarians do for them. Veterinarians are not only involved in caring for pets, but they care for farm animals, service animals, provide for healthy food production, and give emotional support to the pet owning public."

This Scaredy Cat
HappySquirrel 3 years ago
My cat is king of the vet's office. He goes into the office in his carrier, comes out in the examination room, and immediately takes over the whole place. He leaps onto the table on his own, goes from there to the counter with the computer & sink, explores that (including walking behind the monitor, which risks knocking it off the counter, but he deftly avoids doing that - he has skills), and explores every nook & cranny of the room. Vet comes in, cat tolerates all his attention, then goes back to exploring. Never an ounce of fear - he just acts like he owns the place!

All y'all with the "my dog hates cats" attitude should know they're not born that way, they learned that behaviour
MJ 3 years ago
First, my 2 yr old 80 lb Lab and my 3 yr old 15 lb Orange Siberian Tabby are the best of friends. They play together (mostly the cat with the dog’s head 😆), groom each other, snuggle, and sleep on the same bed together. Second, cats - well, some cats - can sense when someone is sad or not feeling well, just like some dogs do. The best way they know to comfort them is to snuggle them. Not all cats are the self-centered, egotistical jerks they’re made out to be.

As Dr. Cappel noted, being a veterinarian is not easy. Just becoming one in the first place is often a long and arduous process. In the United States, for example, there are only 32 veterinary schools, and within each program, there are a limited number of spots available. Applicants have to compete against aspiring vets from all over the country to be accepted into these extremely competitive programs, and once they’ve been admitted, the challenges have just begun.
Similar to medical school, veterinary school requires a vast knowledge of math and science, but many people agree that veterinary school is even harder than medical school. Not because the work is less strenuous in medical school, both paths are comparable, but vet schools are even more selective and competitive than medical schools. And for vets who aim to earn a bachelor’s degree before applying for veterinary school, it takes about eight years to complete their education. This career path is certainly not for the faint of heart.

A Very Smol Checkup
Because it is so difficult to become a veterinarian in the first place, it’s only fair that the job comes along with excellent perks. Vets often get to treat some of the most adorable patients you could ever imagine, as this list shows us. But there are plenty of other benefits to being a vet, as St. George’s University breaks down on their blog. For example, vets can have as much variety as they want in their daily routines. “Veterinarians don’t have to choose a specialty,” Dr. Lori Pasternak, co-founder of Helping Hands Affordable Veterinary Surgery & Dental Care, told St. George’s University. “Every day we get to be dermatologists, cardiologists, surgeons, internists, neurologists, ophthalmologists, and more.”
They can also work with a wide array of species if that interests them too. “I work with more than 4,000 animals of 500 different species in my day-to-day practice, which is incredibly exciting and fulfilling,” says Dr. Allison Tuttle, Diplomate of the American College of Zoological Medicine and Vice President of Biological Programs at Mystic Aquarium.

I agree but sometimes in these cases the owner wasn't going to abandon them, they just couldn't pay the ridiculous fees. It happened to my roommate and it was heartbreaking. I recently had to put my kitten down and I was told if we didn't pay 400 dollars (for 2 shots and the vet saying she had no idea what was wrong with him), we wouldn't be able to take his remains. We paid but I couldn't image having to leave your furbaby there so they can just throw them away. They shouldn't be able to do that. I'm not saying vets are bad or anything but if I was one, I would seriously struggle with that part of the job

Being a veterinarian also provides pretty great job security. We all want the best care for our furry, scaly and feathery friends, so when they need medical attention, we want to find the most skilled and most reliable professionals. “As animal care standards continually increase, there is an additional need for veterinarians,” Dr. Tuttle says. And according to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of veterinarians in the nation is expected to increase by 18% through 2026. This is great news for our pets as well. The more accessible veterinary care is, the better chance they have of making it through their next injury or illness that might have previously been a death sentence.

The look of "I am a majestic fluff ball and shall be worshiped as such.

It also reminded me of something sort of interesting I learned from my vet when I had my giant floof dna tested. I adopted him from a shelter (my cat not the vet lol) and I figured he was probably MC or NFC because he JUST KEPT GROWING at what I thought was an alarming rate. When I talked to the vet about the results, I learned that American and European MCs differ in how their faces look and that American MCs look more "NFC" like because they are likely descendants of the NFC. The European MCs look more like Ron Perlman. 0XQFdcO.jpeg

Many vets also note how rewarding they find their careers. They are making a real difference in the lives of so many animals and humans, as most pet owners would be completely lost without their beloved animal babies. Lots of vets treat more than just pets though. Wildlife can often benefit from great veterinarians as well, as conservation is at the forefront of many vets' personal priorities. “With a mission to inspire people to care for and protect our ocean planet through conservation, education, and research, Mystic Aquarium is in line with my personal passions and philosophies,” Dr. Tuttle says.

My cat has held a grudge against her vet ever since her temperature was taken 6 years ago (she was very, very offended by it). They have to sedate my angry furbaby before they can give her shots now cos she gets so tense and bitey with rage that even swaddling doesn't work.

Does this actually work for some cats? My cat is very anxious, I wonder if this would help, or traumatize her more.
Arunei Shade 3 years ago
It does help for most cats and kittens, as they feel secure when they're in tight enclosed spaces (it's one reason they like boxes and such so much). There will always be some cats that feel *less* secure when restrained in this manner, but you won't know unless you try. Don't worry about traumatizing her though, it won't trouble her that much.

My dog's picture wound up in some veterinary textbooks. She had a condition called Uterus Unicornis (swear I'm not making that up!), which meant she never developed her internal sex organs. I took her in to be spayed, but the vet opened her up and found no uterus or ovaries or anything else to take out. They called everyone to come look at the little weirdo's internal organs and took lots of pictures. When I picked her up, I signed a release that they could use the pictures for whatever they wanted.

You hold the bird withoud gloves and get leaded soft mats layed over your bare hands. Plus you can minimize the window for the x-ray and just shot chest/tummy of the patient e.g. (the resolution is even to bad if you have a window with that big size).

So there's only 2 ferret vets around me. The reasonably close one is more general but there's one who will see exotics. Anyways, their rooms aren't weasel proof and I brought my entire business in. The only way to examine them is to let them out and grab them one at a time while the others explore. So imagine 17 ferrets going in and out the bottom of cabinets and popping out of the counter top holes for like trash or soap dispensers and into the drawers... It took over an hour to get everyone back 😂

The vet, named Catherine Apuli, made it happen by giving the bird a new pair of wing tips made from donated feathers.

If you can't keep a bird safe and able to fly, don't have a bird! Birds are meant to fly. There's absolutely no valid reason to clip a poor birds healthy wings and cripple it so it can't fly. None. Just don't get a bird if you can't give it a proper home where it can do what's natural for it! Same goes for cats. If you can't live with a cat that has claws, don't get a cat. It's just cruel to cripple animals just to have them.

Were the feathers originally clipped to prevent flying? Did the person who clipped them have any clue what they were doing?
Loki’s Lil Butter Knife 3 years ago (edited)
This looks the person clipped the bird/s wings themselves as they rendered the bird flightless which is incredibly dangerous. They could have also severely hurt the bird. A bird needs a way to escape if they find themselves in a dangerous situation. When done by a professional vet or avian expert, they will cut a very tiny portion of the bird's wing (it will grow back quite fast) that still allows them to fly if they are in a dangerous situation, however, the bird will not be able to fly as high as it used to.

Elladine DesIsles 3 years ago
This would explain why one cat I had did not show this behaviour, among others. She was a rescue from a home where the humans (I use the term loosely) had enjoyed hotboxing with the mother cat, including while she was pregnant, to watch her crazy, drugged antics. Unsurprisingly, the kittens were not well socialized. My girl didn't know basic things like how to groom herself, though once we adopted another rescue she would try to mimic him, licking one paw and rubbing it over one ear, over and over. She didn't even know how to meow, and was nearly always silent, but once in a while I would catch her late at night trying to meow with a very scratchy voice, "practicing" when she thought no one could hear her. She was weird, but so sweet! You are missed, Bastet (aka Bazzy-Boo).

Why is that called 'the cone of shame'? Nothing shameful about it. How about 'the cone of healing'? Years ago, one of my cats was given a soft collar by Cornell Vet School. It extends just as far as the rigid cone, keeps the kitty away from tummy stitches, but is SO much more user friendly. I have used it for for 8 spays, 2 abdominal surgeries 2 ear surgeries (at least....you can imagine its condition!).. Not a stitch pulled and MUCH easier for the kitties to eat and sleep. I wish vets all over would use the softer collars. Patient parents also need to ask for them.

My rabbit bamse dont really care when going to the vet, its the car ride he hates. We have not had a local vet that can check on non-big-farm animals since early 2000.

Sivi - rabbits live underground in the wild, so when they are somewhere where it is rattling and shaking their instincts tell them there's an earthquake, or some kind of danger like a predator digging at their tunnel or on the ground above them. If you can put your bunny;s cage on a big pile of blankets in the car, or pillows it might make him feel safer because he won't bounce around so much. Maybe that would help

Old joke: What do you call a vet who can only treat one specie? A physician. Huge respect for everyone who has skills to heal others, but vets have all this different creatures as patients who also cannot tell them what happened or where it hurts.

Paeds are good with little creatures, behaving a little odd at times and not able to tell you were it hurts ... (guess my profession .... ;) )

I always take new pups to the vet just to visit and get pets, use the scale in the waiting room, and get a treat from the jar on the counter. My dogs love the vet!

And I'm sure the staff loves that you get your dogs used to the clinic from the start. That's extremely helpful. Good job!

When I take my cat to a vet check, I use stress spray for my cat. It really works.

Our profession is kind of in a suicide crisis right now and a lot of us work insane hours for a horrible debt:income ratio but 'ooh wow it must be great to play with puppies and kittens all day' 🙄

And see them suffer . . . and clean up after them . . . and deal with crazy pet owners . . . and not be able to provide proper treatment due to cost . . . and . . . and . . . and . . .
