Even Exotic Pets Need Routine Check-Ups
Exotic pets are not invulnerable to the effects of illness and aging. Like dogs and cats, they may conceal their symptoms, or clinical signs may not reveal themselves until your pet’s condition has worsened. That’s why preventative care is just as important for their health needs as it is for our canine and feline friends.
One of our veterinarians has a special interest in caring for birds and other exotics and would be happy to see your companion on a yearly basis for their check-up. In addition to doing a physical exam, we may also suggest blood testing to ensure that your pet is healthy inside and out.
