Arriving in 1970s' London as a fresh-faced Canadian, Bruce Fogle
assumed that because he knew the language, he would understand the
English. As a graduate of the world's best veterinary school, he
also thought his profession would come naturally to him. He quickly
learned not to make assumptions... Bruce began his career at the
prestigious Woodrow & Singleton surgery in the heart of the
Knightsbridge. Frequented by Britain's most distinguished pet
owners, from Duchesses and Sultans to Paul McCartney and Elizabeth
Taylor, it also cared for the exotic inhabitants of the Harrods'
'Zoo Department.' Over the next few years, an arc of clients would
cross Bruce's table, from cats and dogs to alligators, pumas and
even a capuchin monkey. Each adventure taught Bruce far more than
any textbook ever could, while skilful veterinary nurses provided
the greatest lessons of all. Call the Vet is a wonderfully rich and
warmly funny memoir. Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1970s'
London, it explores the unique bond between pets and their owners;
the common thread of compassion that unites all cultures and
classes, and the discovery of love and joy in unexpected places.
Perfect for fans of Noel Fitzpatrick, Ben Fogle and Kate Humble!
