不论是在帮鹦鹉修剪鸟喙、清空狗狗的肛门腺再帮忙阉割猫咪，接着吃中饭，再帮马儿看牙齿、帮小绵羊截肢它的腿，再安慰它的主人。。。这一切都是兽医的日常生活。你不但需要照顾动物，保持自己的道德理念，教育宠物主人正确的照顾观念，还要管理他们的情绪以及期望。这是一份工作，但是它有心疼的时刻，当你需要安乐死一只被心爱的充裕，也有温馨好笑的时刻，比如要劝一名宠物主人绝对不能够自己服用犬类的驱虫丸。

兽医Siôn Rowlands拥有25年的经验，见识过几乎世界上所有的动物医学状况，从悬崖边拯救一匹马，到帮大象宝宝护肤，他什么都见过—荒谬的、夸张的、悲伤的、欢乐的。这是一本诚实、好笑、感动的书，让你看到兽医背后的真实生活！
