Honouring Our Heroes in Animal Care During Veterinary Professionals Appreciation Week

| October 22, 2024

October is a time to celebrate our amazing Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs), but at Toronto Humane Society, we’re taking it a step further. From October 20th to 26th, we’re honouring all our veterinary professionals—our Doctors of Veterinary Medicine (DVMs), RVTs, and Veterinary Assistants (VAs)—who work tirelessly to ensure the health and well-being of the animals in our care and community.

Our veterinary team is essential to delivering lifesaving medical care, from preparing pets for adoption and treating injuries to providing preventive care and serving underserved communities through our Public Veterinary Services.

They truly are the heart of everything we do—there for routine checkups, emergency situations, and beyond, supporting both animals and the people who love them. Their work keeps families together and strengthens our community programs.

Join Us in Saying Thank You

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our veterinary professionals for their daily dedication, skill, and compassion. We encourage everyone to share words of thanks in our latest Instagram video—let’s show them how much they mean to us!

Here’s to our amazing veterinary heroes—thank you for making a difference every day! We appreciate you so much!
