you could just be a vet nurse.
They work alongside the surgeons, they are a key role in the surgery and care for the animals.
- They do some minor surgery, under vet supervision
- Hold animals while vet examines them for surgery
- Do check ups and health checks
- Doing blood tests etc
- Caring for the animals that have had an operation (feeding etc)
- Cleaning wounds
you must be employed in an approved and registered veterinary practice and work towards NVQ levels 2 and 3.

you might have to do the surgery
but you could always be a vet assistant
but vet assistants don't have to go to college so they don't make as much money
