Cait Ni Thuama, DVM

Cáit comes from the countryside of the south west of Ireland, right by the ocean. She grew up riding Connemara ponies, spending any free time at the local riding stables. After graduating from University College Dublin, Ireland in 2017 she moved to New Zealand to complete a yearlong internship in equine medicine and surgery, working with primarily thoroughbred racehorses. Following that she moved to Northern Victoria, Australia to do a stud season. Working mainly with standardbred horses she got to experience all areas of equine reproduction. She then went on the spend time working at an equine hospital in Perth, Western Australia. She enjoys all aspect of equine work, but her main areas of interest are neonatal medicine and reproduction.

Outside of work Cáit enjoys being outside, whether it’s hiking or trying a new activity. She’s looking forward to trying some new snow sports while here in Canada. (Source)
