This week is Veterinary Receptionist Week!☎️ 🐾

Veterinary receptionists are the first hello and the last goodbye during a pet’s visit and are an essential part of the veterinary team. They keep everything running smoothly and make a lasting impact on both pets and their people.

We would like to celebrate and thank our amazing receptionist staff who support Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital every single day.

We’d like to start by introducing Darby. She has been with us for just over a year and has proven to be an outstanding asset to our team. Clients consistently describe her as friendly, helpful, and a pleasure to speak with.💚

Remy the Rex came to see us a few months ago because he wasn’t feeling well. After a night’s stay and some extra care, Remy was able to head back home, just in time to help his parents with some home renovations. His specialty? Hanging wallpaper alongside his bonded sister, Lolo. 🛠️ 🐰 After a well needed nap, of course! 💤

At Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital, we commonly see nutrition-related issues in parrots. While seeds and nuts are favorites, they don’t provide balanced nutrition and can lead to problems over time.

Most parrots thrive on a diet made up of 70–80% formulated pellets, limited treats, and fresh fruits and veggies. A proper diet helps support stronger bones, better feathers, and a longer, healthier life!

Pippa is here to remind you how important it is for piggies to eat fresh fruits and veggies everyday! Vitamin C rich fruits and veggies are essential to a guinea pig's diet as they cannot produce Vitamin C on their own. Veggies also help with hydration and contain fiber for digestion.
Thank you for the reminder Pippa!🐹
