Handling and Restraining Animals

Safety First: Handling Techniques

Proper handling keeps both animals and people safe. Veterinary technicians use gentle restraint to perform exams and procedures without causing stress or injury.

Basic Restraint Methods

  • Using towels or blankets for cats
  • Employing muzzles or gentle holds for dogs
  • Supporting rabbits' spines to prevent injury

Practical Importance

Good restraint technique helps minimize fear, prevent bites, and ensure accurate procedures.

Examples

  • Safely drawing blood from a nervous cat using a towel wrap.

  • Applying a muzzle to a frightened dog before a nail trim.
