Ep 34: Nikki McLeod on firework fears

VN Times Podcast

As fireworks season approaches, RVN Nikki McLeod joins VN Times editor Rachael Buzzel to advise on how practices can support pet owners and their pets through this unsettling time and why vet nurses are perfectly placed to do this.

She is a cat advocate and consulting nurse for a small animal practice in Fife, and is studying for multiple certificates. Not satisfied with gaining her first undergraduate degree at 50, she is now going on to study clinical animal behaviour at The University of Edinburgh, with a view to becoming a practice-based clinical animal behaviourist. She will also be joining BVNA council and serving a three-year term in October.
