Exotic Pet Care

Every pet is special to us at University Animal Clinic. We also know exotic pets are unique and therefore require special care. Our highly qualified exotic veterinarians near you serve the needs of exotic pets in University Park, Bradenton, Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch. Whether a bird has a crop infection, a snake or other reptile is not eating or has a lack of appetite, or rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets or other rodents suffer from respiratory infections, we are here to serve the needs of our all exotic pets and their owners. In addition to treating exotic pet ailments, we offer tips and guidance on the proper diet, vitamins, lighting and housing for these unique creatures that visit our exotic pet clinic.

Although all reptiles share the similar traits of being cold-blooded and covered in scales, they do not follow a one-size fits all outline for proper care. Some snakes and other reptiles need a hot, dry environment while other snakes and reptiles require a humid and mossy enclosure. They also vary in requirements for lighting, diet, vitamins and housing.
