Exotic Pet Care

Do you prefer your animal companion to be covered in feathers or scales? Is the company of an exotic creature something you relish?

At Animal Medical Center of Louisa, we recognize that not everyone chooses a dog or cat as their pet. We also understand that birds, reptiles and exotics have unique needs and requirements to keep them happy and healthy. Our doctors and staff are trained in exotic pet care. We are here to answer questions you may have about a new or existing pet.

Animal Medical Center of Louisa sees all kinds of exotic animals including but not limited to:

• Birds (from tropical beauties to backyard chickens)
• Rats
• Hamsters
• Ferrets
• Snakes
• Lizards
• Chinchillas
• Gerbils
• Guinea pigs
• Rabbits
• Sugar gliders
• Turtles

The list of exotic pet care services we offer includes, but is not limited to:

• Boarding
• Wing and nail trims for birds
• Wellness exams
• X-rays and blood work
• Husbandry counseling – advice on nutrition and habitat set-up

Choosing to own an exotic pet requires a special kind of owner, one who can commit to providing the appropriate care. These kinds of animals make very rewarding companions but it’s important to remember that, because they are not typical pets, they have special needs. We can provide the guidance, advice, and support you need to help your unique pet thrive.

Please feel free to contact Animal Medical Center of Louisa and ask our passionate team of animal lovers for an appointment for your exotic pet.
