🌟 RABBIT HUSBANDRY 101 🐇💚

At 2nd Street Animal Hospital & Exotic Clinic, we know that rabbits are more than just pets—they're part of the family! 🏡✨ Proper husbandry is essential to keeping your bunny happy and healthy. Here are some key tips:

🌱 Diet is Everything
Provide unlimited fresh hay (like Timothy or orchard grass), a variety of leafy greens, and a small amount of high-quality rabbit pellets. Always have fresh water available!

🏡 A Comfortable Home
Ensure your rabbit’s living space is spacious, clean, and lined with soft bedding. They need room to hop, stretch, and explore! 🏠

🐇 Enrichment and Exercise
Rabbits are curious and active creatures! Provide toys for chewing, tunnels for exploring, and daily supervised playtime outside their enclosure.

🩺 Regular Checkups
Rabbits are masters at hiding illness. Schedule regular wellness visits with Dr. Bender, our exotic animal expert, to keep your bunny in top shape!

❄️ Temperature Control
Rabbits are sensitive to heat—keep their environment cool, especially in warmer months.

💡 Have questions about your bunny’s care? Or need to schedule a wellness check? Call us today at 📞 215-516-7000. Let’s give your rabbit the happy, healthy life they deserve! 🐾💖

🌟 Lab Work: The Key to Your Pet's Health 🌟

At 2nd Street Animal Hospital & Exotic Clinic, we believe in the power of preventive care to ensure your pets live long, healthy lives—whether they're furry, feathered, or scaled! 🐾🐦🦎

Routine lab work is a crucial part of this care. Here's why:
💉 Early Detection: Many health issues can develop quietly. Regular blood work and diagnostics help us catch concerns before symptoms appear.
🩺 Personalized Care: Lab results give us insights into your pet's internal health, allowing us to tailor treatments and care specifically for them.
🌡️ Monitoring Chronic Conditions: For pets with ongoing health issues, lab work helps us manage their care effectively.
💪 Peace of Mind: Knowing your pet is healthy—or addressing issues quickly—brings comfort to every pet parent.

Whether your companion is a dog, cat, rabbit, parrot, or even a bearded dragon, our expert team is here to keep them thriving! Schedule their lab work today—because your pet's health is priceless. ❤️

📞 Call us at 215-516-7000 to book an appointment.

This week we celebrated our wonderful nurses! They work hard at keeping our clients happy and our office culture top notch! Thank you to all Vet Techs for doing what you do and pouring your heart out every step of the way! Happy Vet Tech Week!

10/19/2024

National Veterinary Technician Week is finally here! I'll be at your "tech and call" all week with Vet Tech-specific posts. So if you're "hunt and tech-ing" for some relatable content, this is the place to find it! I'll warn you now: I'm gonna have a "tech of a time" getting through this week without dropping any more Vet Tech puns. But I thought I'd start by "teching in": How's the week kicking off for you so far? (Extra points if your comment includes a pun 😏)
