Summary
One of the Financial Times' Best Summer Books of 2022
Our lives are intrinsically linked to those of animals—whether that's the animals we farm for food, those living in the wild, those we use for sport or the ones we choose to keep as pets. We all have a responsibility to consider our impact, and even small changes in our own lives could significantly improve the quality of theirs.
Dr Sean Wensley is an award-winning vet and lifelong naturalist, advocating animal wellbeing around the world. Fusing keen scientific insight with tender meditations on the natural world, Through a Vet's Eyes reveals the injustices which animals experience every day and raises an important question: how can we choose a better life for animals?
Compelling and compassionate, Through a Vet's Eyes helps us to see things from the animals' perspectives, and illuminates the ways we can better care for our fellow creatures.

Love & care for animals in every word
Sean delivers a thought provoking and powerful message in a hugely accessible way interweaving his love of nature with his extreme concern for those animals we’ve domesticated and utilise. A hugely enjoyable read that makes you think how you can help change things.

Thought provoking discussion on animal welfare
The book is broad in its discussion on animal welfare issues, covering a number of species - farmed and pets. It is enlightening and thought-provking on the current issues surrounding the way we treat animals and offers tangible insights and suggested behaviour changes on how we can strike a better balance between humans and the other species which we co-habit the planet with. Would thoroughly recommend.

Really changed the way I think about animal welfare
A must read! Valuable information for anyone eating animal products to make better choices. I am vegan and it helped me to understand how to discuss effective change to improve animal welfare
