The month of August we dedicate to our exotic friends.
We recommend annual exams for every pet, especially our exotic pets as they can easily hide their illness. It’s very important to be sure their living environment and diet is fit for their species, size, and age as inadequate care can result in illness. Keeping a weekly/monthly log of their weight and eating habits may help catch disease or illness early, if they are dropping weight or eating less you will want to get them in for an exam. Depending on what kind of exotic pet you have we may recommend some yearly diagnostics such as; bloodwork, fecal testing, and X-rays.
We do offer vaccines for ferrets and rabbits.
Birds may need to come in for regular beak, nail, and wing trims.
Reptiles may need annual fecal testing as they are introduced to parasites from their food.

LOOK at how easy it was to give Jay her Heartgard. She loves this beef flavored chew and thinks is a special treat. Heartgard is a monthly chewable tablet that prevents our cats from getting the deadly heartworm disease. Sadly with cats heartworm disease is only something that we can prevent so once they get it unfortunately there is no cure.
Come by today to get your cat their next dose of heartworm medication.

It took me 1 minute to make and over 20 minutes of enrichment and play time for Deogi:)
We used an old pillow case and some of Deogis kibbles and rolled them up in the pillowcase and tied it lightly in a knot.
