What is an exotic pet?
An exotic pet is any animal not commonly kept as a household pet whose natural habitat is in the wild. It is common for exotic pets to have unpredictable behaviours as they aren’t used to being domesticated. Some examples of exotic pets that we treat include reptiles such as lizards, snakes, and turtles.
How can I care for my exotic pet?
Before you get an exotic pet it is important you do research on that animal. Exotic pets are not easy to care for or tame. You should go into exotic pet ownership with as much information as possible. Being informed can also keep you from running into problems with the law as exotic pet ownership is regulated in some cities. You should always consult with an experienced and informed veterinarian about how you can care for your exotic pet. Our team can assist you in creating a lifestyle and nutrition plan as well as provide medical care for your pet.
