Never Get Involved with Animals. The Life of a Veterinarian

Gareth Steel has been working with animals for over twenty years. He is a veterinarian who has dealt with all kinds of pets: not only hamsters, cats, and dogs, but also chickens, cows, and horses. His day could start with... the heroic rescue of a rabbit stuck between a fence and a shed, and end with euthanizing a cat whose owners can no longer afford to keep it. Joy, delight, gratitude, disappointment, anger, helplessness — the entire spectrum of emotions, sometimes extreme, are experienced by people working in veterinary clinics.
This book is a rough but truthful account of the complexities of a veterinarian's job. It is also a collection of touching and often humorous stories about the desperate measures we take out of love for animals. The publication is a medium-sized hardcover.
