Small Animal Clinic Grand Rapids

Small Animal Clinic Grand Rapids

Small animals require specialized care to maximize their health and happiness, and that’s exactly what we provide at Blue Lake Animal Hospital. At our small animal clinic, Grand Rapids veterinarians offer attentive services that address your pet’s current and future well-being. We specialize in the needs of chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats and many other small animals.  

Keep Your Pocket Pet Healthy at Blue Lake Animal Hospital

Despite their small size, pocket pets need just as much care as any other animal. If you’re new to caring for a pocket pet, find the guidance you need at our animal hospital. We deliver a range of services to address your pet’s current and ongoing health needs. Generally, pocket pets require very specific care:

  • Diets. While most pocket pets do well eating dry food from pet stores, some need individualized diets for optimal health. Your pet’s diet depends on whether they are an insectivore-omnivore or an herbivore.  
  • Disease Prevention. Due to their biology, pocket pets are sometimes more prone to certain illnesses and infections, such as respiratory problems and mammary tumors. 
  • Housing. Pocket pets are happiest in environments that emulate their natural homes. Cages are an excellent option to prevent the pet from escaping while providing enough space for their individual behaviors. Chinchillas like to take sand baths, while sugar gliders need enough room to glide between perches. 
  • Socialization. It’s common for pocket pets to need a companion, or else they will become depressed. However, some pets are better alone, such as hamsters. Understanding your pet’s unique socialization needs lets you ensure it is happy. 

Our veterinarians have all the information you need to know how to best care for your pocket pet. We’re more than happy to discuss your pet’s specific care requirements at a checkup. 

A Full Range of Specialized Services

At Blue Lake Animal Hospital, we offer a wide range of specialized veterinary services for pocket pets, dogs, cats and more. Our mission is to treat and prevent disease through innovative solutions, and we use several key techniques to keep pets healthy:

  • Diagnostics. If we suspect that your pet has an underlying health issue that needs to be addressed, we may order diagnostic testing to determine the root cause. Our diagnostic tests include imaging, lab work and more. Talk to our veterinarians to see how we can best assist you. 
  • Preventative Medicine. Our work is firmly grounded in the belief that many health issues in animals can be prevented through deliberate strategy. From tick & flea prevention to vaccinations, we help pets avoid severe disease from occurring in the first place. 
  • Specialized Surgeries. We offer specialized surgeries that other veterinarians do not offer, including knee repair and artificial insemination.
