Cats Limited Veterinary Hospital·West Hartford, Connecticut
Provide compassionate medical care to feline patients, including performing physical assessments and assisting in surgical and dental procedures. Maintain accurate medical records and manage clinic treatment areas while educating clients on home care instructions.
4-Day Work Week. All Cats, All the Time.
Cats Limited is a feline-exclusive, AAHA-accredited hospital in West Hartford, CT, built from the ground up around how cats actually experience veterinary care. Not "mostly cats." Not "cat-friendly certified" as an afterthought. Every protocol, every exam room, every handling technique is designed for cats, by people who genuinely love them.
We're looking for a Veterinary Technician who doesn't just tolerate cats, but who lights up talking about feline behavior, low-stress handling, and the "why" behind the medicine. Someone who wants a career, not just a job and a team and leaders invested in helping you build it.
Credentialed technicians preferred; experienced non-credentialed technicians are encouraged to apply.
$23–28/hour, based on experience.
Our Comprehensive benefit package includes: Medical, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) with a total company match up to 4%, after 6 months of employment
Generous paid time off and flexible scheduling
Continuing education allowance and professional development support
Mental Health Resources: Company paid bonding leave or applicable state provided bonding leave

Diagnostics: Savings on reference lab testing
Nutrition: Discounts on Purina pet foods
Insurance: Preferred rates with our pet insurance partner
