Exotic Pet Care
At Family Vet Lake St Louis, we believe that every pet deserves quality veterinary care, no matter how big or small! We are excited to now offer services for small mammals, rabbits, and pocket pets. We are committed to providing compassionate, knowledgeable care for your unique companions.
Why Choose Us for Your Exotic Pet’s Care?
Exotic pets have unique needs that can differ greatly from cats and dogs. From nutrition and habitat setup to early illness detection, our team is here to help you navigate their specialized care. Our team is dedicated to staying up-to-date on the latest advancements in exotic pet care to provide the best possible treatment for your pet.
Exotic Pets We See
We currently welcome the following exotic pets for veterinary care:
- Pocket Pets (Guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, rats, and more)
- Small Mammals (Excluding ferrets)
- Rabbits
Exotic Pet Wellness Exams
Routine veterinary care is just as important for exotic pets as it is for cats and dogs. Regular check-ups help ensure they are thriving and allow us to address any health concerns early. During a wellness exam, we will discuss:
- Husbandry: The best practices for your pet’s habitat and daily care
- Nutrition: Tailoring their diet for optimal health
- Environment: Ensuring a safe, enriching living space
- Handling & Behavior: Safe ways to interact with your pet and recognize signs of illness
Because exotic pets often hide signs of illness, early detection is crucial. If you notice changes in appetite, behavior, or appearance, please reach out to us right away.
