Small Mammal FAQs

Yes, River Rock Animal Hospital is welcoming new pocket pet patients at our veterinary clinic in Midland, MI. We provide veterinary care for small mammals, including guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, gerbils, and more. Call us at (989) 750-7222 to schedule an appointment.

Pocket pets benefit from a veterinary wellness exam at least once a year, even if they appear healthy. Routine checkups are especially valuable because small mammals have relatively short lifespans and can develop health problems rapidly.

Your small mammal pet may have overgrown teeth if they are having difficulty chewing, dropping food, drooling, experiencing weight loss, or have a decreased appetite. If you notice changes in your pet's eating habits or behavior, schedule an exam for your pocket pet at River Rock Animal Hospital.

Decreased appetite, weight loss, unusual lethargy, changes in droppings, difficulty breathing, or a messy coat are just a handful of symptoms that can indicate that your pocket pet is not well. If your hamster, guinea pig, rat, or other pocket pet is acting differently, contact River Rock Animal Hospital at (989) 750-7222 right away for a sick appointment.
