small animal vet

Companion animal physician

A small animal vet is a veterinarian who treats pets and other small domestic animals—dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds—as distinct from large animal vets who work with horses, cattle, and livestock.

Most neighborhood veterinary clinics are small animal practices: We took the cat to the small animal vet for her shots.
