22 Brutally Honest Confessions From A Veterinarian
“OK guys, admit it: Who put these cat bollocks in my mug?”
Before you ask: Yes, we have all put our hands up a cow's bum.
Even if we go on to specialise in small animals, it's part of our training. We do it for several reasons, and, yes, it does feel weird. Plus you can get injured if the cow moves suddenly, and there's a pretty good chance you'll get kicked. Fun times.

We often end up collecting animals.
Sometimes clients can't keep an animal, or don't come back to pick them up after surgery. It's very tempting to take them home "for a while", which is why a lot of vets end up with a random menagerie of one-eyed, three-legged pets.
We play pranks quite a lot to lighten the mood.
It's quite hard to resist hiding a pair of recently-removed cat balls somewhere your colleague will least expect them. Like their favourite mug.
We get asked some really daft questions.
"Can you neuter my dog instead of spaying her? It's cheaper!" Unless your female dog has testicles, then no. Spaying means removing a pet's uterus. We often get asked "Do I need to bring my pet to the appointment?" as well. Er, yes.
