Because they are smaller and seem easier to care for than traditional family pets such as dogs and cats, many pet owners don\u2019t realize that their pocket pet needs routine veterinary care, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Why Pocket Pet Wellness Care Is Important<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth is, small and exotic pets derive all of the same benefits from regular checkups as their<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/blog\/a-well-trained-dog-is-a-happy-dog-obedience-care-at-lone-tree-veterinary-medical-center\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">canine<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/blog\/cat-bite-prevention\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">feline<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> counterparts. Along with making sure they\u2019re in good health,\u00a0check-ups for pocket pet wellness is\u00a0an opportunity to take care of cosmetic maintenance issues that are not possible to do at home.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to provide the best environment and ensure a happy, healthy life for your pet, consider the following points regarding pocket pet <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/blog\/an-ounce-of-prevention-the-importance-of-pet-wellness-exams\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wellness<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> care:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Dental care <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Rabbits and other rodents don\u2019t need help keeping their <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/blog\/the-tooth-of-the-matter-why-pet-dental-health-matters\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">teeth<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> maintained in the wild, as their natural diets and foraging habits keep teeth clean and short (some animals, such as rabbits, have teeth that grow continuously). Things are different in captivity, and certain pocket pets will need their teeth trimmed and\/or cleaned to keep them healthy. Teeth that are too long will make it difficult and, eventually, impossible for your pocket pet to chew its food, leading to malnutrition and illness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Nail care <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Because life inside our homes provides little opportunity for pets such as lizards, birds, and guinea pigs to keep their nails naturally trimmed, some of these little guys may need help from a professional. Attempting to trim a small animal\u2019s nails can be difficult for even the most experienced pet owner, so the occasional trip to see us for a trim will keep those nails at the appropriate length. \u00a0Nails that are allowed to grow too long can be painful and, along with other problems, will prevent your pocket pet from walking properly. \u00a0For birds, overly long nails will prevent them from being able to feed themselves, as well as climb to and properly grip a perch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Beak and wing care<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 For birds, a beak that is too long will make eating and self- grooming difficult or impossible, so the occasional beak trim is an important part of a caged bird\u2019s cosmetic care. \u00a0Wing trims are another cosmetic procedure that can be done to prevent your bird from flying away. \u00a0Both of these trims must be performed properly and should be done only by a qualified veterinarian. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Environmental considerations <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Factors such as bedding, cleanliness, temperature, and humidity can have huge impacts on your pocket pet\u2019s quality of life. Your veterinarian can help you come up with a plan to make your pet\u2019s living quarters as comfortable and healthy as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Nutrition <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 All animal species have their own specific nutritional requirements for optimal health and pocket pets are no different. \u00a0Your veterinarian will be happy to help you formulate a plan that meets the nutritional needs of your pet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Pocket Pet And Exotics Care At Lone Tree Veterinary Medical Center<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Lone Tree Veterinary Medical Center, we believe that all pets deserve access to high quality medical care on a regular basis.
