Gwen and Merlin would like to remind everyone that sedation can be a great tool for pets who dislike coming to the vet. Although both of them enjoy cuddles in the comfort of their home they aren’t too interested in needles… for an anxious cat like Gwen sedation greatly benefits her anxiety as well as staff safety while exams and routine diagnostics are done. Merlin on the other hand is very happy to behave for his exams, however like many people, he is not a fan of needles. Sedation is used to keep him and the staff safe during blood draws and other diagnostics.

Jaga is a beautiful Leopard Tortoise. Some tortoises, like Jaga, can be quite shy. Sometimes it takes a lot of time and patience to get a head exam done when they are hiding like this. At times, sedation is required. For our shy tortoises and our larger tortoises we recommend booking morning appointments so we have plenty of time to work at your tortoises pace to make sure they are as safe and comfortable during their exam as possible.

Lilikoi is a beautiful type of Parakeet called a Princess of Wales Parakeet (Polytelis alexandrae), also referred to as a Princess Parrot. These parrots are named after Princess Alexandra of Denmark (1844-1925), who would later become Queen of England after marrying the Prince of Wales, Edward VII.

It is with a heavy heart that I announce we lost a member of the Wildwood family last month. Lincoln was the hospitals gentle giant, always offering cuddles, head presses, and copious amounts of slobber. Although we miss him dearly, we are glad he is at peace across the rainbow bridge.

The first photograph was taken by Dr. Welsh. She would like to remind everyone that ice cream is not an appropriate diet for dogs.

We have to utilize a lot of different tools, including sedation, to safely examine our larger tortoises. In Nitro’s case he did not allow us to do a head exam and sample collection at his first exam. We expected to sedate him at his recheck but he allowed us to safely examine his head and collect a sample without needing to sedate.
