Regardless of species, routine preventive care visits can help improve the overall health and longevity for your exotic pet, pocket pet, amphibian or avian species. Even the most subtle changes in appetite, stool production, breathing, or behavior and activity, can indicate a serious concern or health problem. Please give us a call to discuss options for examining your exotic companion, as they require a special approach.
Specialized Care for Exotic Pets
At Wendell Animal Hospital, we understand that exotic pets are just as cherished as more traditional pets, and they deserve the same level of expert care. Whether you have a bird, reptile, small mammal, or another unique companion, our team is equipped with the knowledge and experience to provide specialized care tailored to the specific needs of exotic pets.
Why Choose Us for Your Exotic Pet’s Care?
Exotic pets require a different approach to healthcare than cats and dogs. Their unique physiology, dietary needs, and environmental requirements mean they need a veterinarian who understands these differences. Our team is dedicated to providing the highest level of care for all pets, including those that are a little more out of the ordinary.
Our Exotic Pet Care Services
We offer a full range of services designed to keep your exotic pet healthy and happy:
- Routine Wellness Exams: Just like more common pets, exotic animals benefit from regular checkups. During these exams, our veterinarians will assess your pet’s overall health, discuss their diet and habitat, and look for any signs of illness or stress.
- Dietary and Nutritional Counseling: Proper nutrition is essential for the health of exotic pets. Our team will work with you to ensure your pet’s diet meets their specific nutritional needs, whether they are an herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore.
- Housing and Environmental Guidance: The right environment is crucial for the well-being of exotic pets. We can advise you on proper housing, temperature, humidity, and lighting to create the best possible habitat for your pet.
- Illness Diagnosis and Treatment: Exotic pets can be more susceptible to stress and disease due to their specialized needs. Our veterinarians are skilled in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions that affect exotic species.
- Emergency and Urgent Care: Exotic pets may not always show obvious signs of illness, making it important to seek care at the first indication of a problem. We provide emergency and urgent care services for exotic pets, ensuring they get the immediate attention they need when it matters most.
- Surgical Care: When surgery is necessary, you can trust our experienced team to handle it with the utmost care. We offer surgical services for exotic pets, including soft tissue surgery, spay and neuter procedures, and more.
