For the past year, I spent most of my free time writing a book called Coated With Fur: A Vet’s Life. I turned it over to the editor for the final time last week. What a relief! A friend told me writing a book is like living in the desert and they keep moving the oasis. That description sums up my experience to a tee.
Coated With Fur: A Vet’s Life celebrates animals and the amazing bond we share with them. Set in a veterinary practice, the book chronicles my experience in the first year of owning a clinic. It recounts joyful stories such as saving a dog’s leg to the agony of euthanizing a long-term patient. It examines the unexpected when a snake gets stuck, scaring the society ladies in the waiting room. In the end, readers will possess greater appreciation for life and the animals with whom we share this planet.
