Always Connected

di Ross Thompson (Autore)

Ross Thompson, 2025

This book explores that developing intersection between pet owners and technology. It is not about replacing the trusted family veterinarian, nor is it an attempt to suggest that a screen can solve every health crisis. Instead, it is about the ways technology expands possibilities, strengthens communication, and in some cases even saves lives. Along the way, we will hear stories of owners who turned to virtual consultations in emergencies, examine the tools that are entering the market, and consider the balance between digital advice and hands-on treatment. Pet ownership has always been about connection. From the moment a puppy curls up at our feet or a cat softly purrs on our lap, we sense a bond that is more than practical. We care, they respond, and over time we become attuned to the small changes in their habits, moods, and health. Yet for all our love and attention, there has always been one area where many owners feel helpless: when something seems wrong and the vet is far away, closed for the night, or booked up for days. Today, however, technology is reshaping that landscape. Just as human medicine has embraced telehealth, veterinary care is following a similar path. Video calls with licensed veterinarians, apps that analyze symptoms, wearable collars that transmit heart rate and activity levels, and platforms offering instant contact with professionals have entered the lives of ordinary pet owners. What once seemed futuristic—the idea of speaking with a vet from your kitchen at midnight, or receiving an alert that your dog's heart rhythm has changed—is rapidly becoming commonplace.
