How often do we get to see a pet’s real personality at the vet clinic? Stress completely transforms the playful, happy cats we know and love to terrified patients that can be challenging to handle.

For too long, veterinary professionals have focused on what needs to get done medically without thinking about how we’re interacting with our patients. It’s also easy to lose connection with patients when they’re hiding, fleeing, trying to bite, or doing all three from fear. But every patient is someone’s pet, and learning more humane ways of approaching them in the clinic is the future of veterinary care.

Flux Veterinary provides education, training, and consulting for compassionate vet teams and pet professionals.

Flux Veterinary is proud to be a minority-owned, woman-owned business based in Austin, TX. We welcome vet and pet professional collaborators of all ethnicities, backgrounds, genders, and sexual orientations.
