Even rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, and other small animals experience various health issues that we are able to treat or operate on.
For diagnostics, we use
X-ray or ultrasound, and if necessary, we also
examine blood or urine.
Just as the realm of small mammals is diverse, so are the procedures and examinations we perform daily at the clinic.
Here is a showcase of the most common ones:
Teeth Correction and Overgrown Claws
We perform shortening of long claws or teeth.
To treat overgrown teeth, we use special instruments and perform the procedure under general anesthesia.
We also recommend suitable food and
proper care.
Dermatology
Rabbits, guinea pigs, and other rodents also suffer from various skin diseases, often due to a variety of causes.
Some parasites cause intense itching and
are also transmissible to humans, similar to fungal infections.
We perform skin examinations and administer appropriate medications.
Surgery
Regarding surgical procedures,
we most frequently perform spaying and neutering of female and male rabbits, guinea pigs, or degus.
We also operate on
abscesses in rabbits,
ovarian cysts in guinea pigs, and
tumors in rats or other rodents.
These masses can reach large sizes and bleed easily, so it is important to
come in time.
