October is RVT Month, a time to recognize the Registered Veterinary Technologists who make exceptional patient care possible, both in clinics and behind the scenes.

As the month comes to a close, we’re celebrating the RVTs whose expertise, empathy, and dedication keep patients safe and veterinary teams supported.

At Animal HealthLink, our team of RVTs works remotely to triage patients 24/7, ensuring that animals receive the care they need and clinics can rest easy knowing their clients are in capable hands.

Thank you to our wonderful RVTs for all the unseen moments, the late nights, and the quiet compassion that saves lives, comforts pet parents, and supports veterinary teams every day. 💙 Swipe to see how appreciated you are!

It’s here! Episode 1 of Don’t Call Me Catty is live.

This wild idea started while planning our booth for the recent CVMA conference in Victoria.

"What if we set up a pop-up podcast studio right on the trade floor and talked to the people shaping the veterinary industry about the stuff that really matters?"

So we brought in the mics, cameras, neon sign, comfy chairs, and hit record.

Our CEO, Leilani Mustillo, co-hosting with Jillian Carr of Steady Gait Planning talked everything from:

- Burnout,
- Career pivots,
- Finances,
- Side quests,
- Work-life balance,
- Emergency management,
- Access to care, and
- The evolution of our industry with a wide range of interesting guests.

We laughed (a lot), got real, and heard incredible stories.

Our first episode is now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. This is just the beginning of many more conversations to come.

Listen now & join us for the conversations the vet world really needs to have.

In the inaugural episode of 'Don't Call Me Catty,' co-hosts Jillian and Leilani built a pop-up podcast studio at Canada's national veterinary conference, CVM...

While many Canadians were enjoying the August long weekend, the team at Animal HealthLink was on duty supporting worried pet owners, triaging emergencies, and keeping patients out of the ER when it was safe to do so.

📞 Over just three days, we answered:
🐾 383 calls on Saturday,
🐾 368 calls on Sunday, and
🐾 320 calls on Monday,

with a total of 1,071 pets triaged.

Thanks to our incredible team of RVTs and 24/7 teletriage system, pets received timely support, and our clinic partners enjoyed a well-earned rest knowing their clients were in expert hands.

Long weekends may come and go, but our care never takes a break.
