Go to your local library and look for the career books. The term to search in the catalog is "veterinary medicine -- vocational guidance" Some of the books will be aimed at children, but others are on a more adult level. These will tell you what background is needed for your career.
You can also ask the reference librarian for a copy of the Occupational Outlook Handbook. This is a one volume career guide published by the U.S. government. It will give you a few pages on each career, including education needed, working conditions, average salary and a list of professional organizations. If you don't find the answers you want in the article, write one or more of the organizations given and ask them for more details.

To become a Vet, you will need an undergraduate degree in the sciences. That means at least a year of Math at the calculus level. Some statistics may also be helpful.
