Orange County pet owners are always looking to cut back on their pet expenses. It should be noted though that veterinary care is not the area to cut corners in. Pets need checkups, and in the long run you will save more money with regular care.
If you have a bird their care will cover nutrition, vaccinations, parasites, preventive measures, environmental needs, nail trimmings, and behavioral concerns. Their feathers, claws, and beak will all be examined.
Your reptile’s checkup will include a physical examination, blood tests, fecal check, microbiological tests, and possibly radiological tests. Their skin, scales, and mouths will all be thoroughly examined.
