Funniest Veterinary Memes Pet Owners Can Relate To

If you have a dog or cat, you've been here. Trust us. These veterinary memes are so much funnier than we expected.

Few things are as stressful as taking your pet to the vet. That’s because about 99 percent of pets detest going to the vet, even if they’re just going for a routine checkup. Aside from that one, happy-go-lucky golden retriever, most of the patients veterinarians work with are suspicious of their intentions.

Whether you are a vet or simply yet another pet owner dreading the ordeal of shoving a furry ball of rage into a crate, these veterinary memes will have you thinking, “Same.”

PSA: Veterinarians Have a New Name

Reprint the dictionary. This was clearly a massive oversight.

Vets are now called dogtors. Cats can go next door to the Cat Cure Clinic.

Well Played, Sir

Hooman, this morning you smelled like bacon and love. Now, I don’t even recognize your smell.

It’s hidden under the dense odor of betrayal.

Pet Owners, Take Note

Cheezburger

The internet is a great resource for pet parents, and vets do appreciate it if you show up with an accurate account of your pet’s behavior and health.

They don’t appreciate it when clients trust Google over their years of soul-crushing studying in veterinary school.

Does This Count as Education?

Or cat body-shaming?

The cat doesn’t look too insulted. If anything, he looks pleased with himself.

Vet Techs Really Do Love Their Jobs

Being a vet tech isn’t glamorous, and it’s not all that lucrative either. Their messy, smelly, sometimes disgusting jobs.

But they do it because they legitimately care about animals, including yours — and because interacting with people can be annoying.

We Understand Both Sides of This Vet Meme

Vet appointments work like traffic. If one person is late, it slows down everyone behind them. It’s frustrating to have to wait for an appointment you scheduled weeks ago, but don’t forget that the vet has zero control over whether the people ahead of you showed up on time or not.

But you can definitely still put your hands on your hips in frustration.

If a Vet Doesn’t Try to Talk to Animals, Are They Even a Vet?

Cheezburger

Studies show that 9/10 vets attempted to talk to animals during vet school at least once. Fine, we made that up, but we’re probably not far off the mark.

Dr. Doolittle made all of us want to be a vet when we grew up.

Being a Vet Is More Stressful Than We Realized

Cheezburger

Yes, vets get to work with fluffy animals all day, but even though each bill seems excessive, vets aren’t getting rich off their clients.

Considering many of them work around the clock to answer panicked pet-parent texts, perform pro-bono spay and neuter surgeries, and left vet school neck deep in student loans, their prices are very reasonable.

For the Last Time, Vets Can’t Diagnose Patients They Can’t See

Can't you tell me what's wrong with my dog?

Cheezburger

One question for anyone who expects the vet to treat their pet over the phone: What would you say if your plumber offered to fix a leak virtually?

No further questions.

We’re Jealous of the Cat in This Vet Meme

Cheezburger

At the doctor’s office, there’s no way we could fit in the trash can.

We’re stuck sitting on wax paper in paper towel and tape, with nowhere to run. Rude.

Best. Graduation Announcement. Ever.

Dog graduating vet school with his owner

Where is this vet now? We’d like to give him all of our business immediately.

If he doesn’t have this photo framed in the lobby, he should.

Remember What We Said About Empathy?

Woman forgot to bring her dog with her to the vet

We never know what’s going on in someone’s day. We’ve all had a moment where we’re so overscheduled that we blank on something very, very obvious.

Be patient because when someone shows up to a vet appointment without their pet, they probably need a hug more than a dirty look.

Vet Offices With a Sense of Humor Are the Best

This is very much a dad joke, but that’s the kind of wholesome humor a vet should bring to the table.

He Was Too Young

After the accident, he had no legs. Didn’t have any legs before the accident either.

He went to the vet because he ate a paper towel whole.

Good to know we can only bodyslam a 200-pound predator one time. So helpful.

Guess the jaguar at the zoo will need a new keeper to clip its nails every month.
