Advice for people with small animals for pets2007-11-24 21:57:25

For anyone with small pets like hamsters, mice and rabbite etc..

I have a one year old male syrian hamster and recently found out at my local veterinary surgery there is a specialist who specifically deals in smaller animals.

As my hamster has just turned one I thought I would book him in for a basic health check.

I would really advise people out there with smaller animals to do this. Okay, smaller animals dont live as long, but illnesses or lumps and bumps can easily go undetected until its to late.

It was a real comfort to know that Harry is in tip top condition, and I will be doing this every 6-12 months now. It could well help to prolong a little animals life, and was not expensive either, only拢12.

Call up your local vets today to see if they do yearly consultations on small pets like they do on cats and dogs. Im so glad we did x
