What to Expect at Your Visit
Caring for exotic pets requires special knowledge, gentle handling, and a stress-free environment. During your appointment, we’ll:
- Take a thorough history of your pet’s habitat, diet, and behavior
- Perform a complete physical exam tailored to your pet’s species
- Provide nutritional counseling and husbandry guidance
- Offer diagnostics and treatment recommendations if your pet is ill
We also encourage annual wellness exams to catch problems early, just like with dogs and cats.
Helping You Be the Best Caretaker Possible
Exotic and pocket pets can be masters at hiding illness, so it’s important to schedule a visit if you notice any changes in their behavior, appetite, or appearance. We’re here to support both you and your pet with the expert care they need and the education you deserve.
