This month, we’re shining a spotlight on some of the most fascinating and often misunderstood pets—rabbits, rodents, birds, and reptiles. While cats and dogs may get most of the attention, these unique companions bring just as much joy, personality, and love into our homes. They also come with their own set of special needs when it comes to health, diet, and daily care.

At AMC, we understand how important it is to have a veterinary team that not only welcomes but specializes in caring for these exotic pets. From routine checkups and nutritional counseling to advanced diagnostics and surgery, AMC can help you provide medical care for your rabbit, rodent, bird or reptile.

Why Focus on Exotics?

Exotic pets like these require very different care than traditional household pets. Rabbits, for example, need spaying or neutering to prevent health issues and behavioral concerns. Birds need mental stimulation and proper nutrition to thrive. Rodents are social little creatures who need enrichment and habitat care. And reptiles rely heavily on proper lighting, heating, and supplementation for long-term health.

What to Expect This Month

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing helpful tips, resources, and educational spotlights to help you better understand how to care for your exotic companions. Whether you already share your life with one of these special pets or are just curious about what it takes, you’ll find practical advice and insights here.

Rabbits, rodents, birds, and reptiles may be small, but they leave a big impact on our lives. With the right care and veterinary support, they can thrive as happy, healthy members of your family. Stay tuned throughout the month as we dive deeper into what makes each of these pets so unique—and how you can give them the very best care.
