Cecilie’s favourite aspects of the job are being involved in medicine cases, caring for the hospital patients, and carrying out desensitisation consults. Desensitisation consults are useful for nervous patients building up trust and a more positive association with the vets.

Cecilie spends a lot of time training and working through his issues with him, it is slow but rewarding! She is also very passionate about small rodents, and has had many hamsters, she is a huge advocate for their welfare and proper care.
