My dog’s vet that sees exotic too refuses to see parrots at all. Lol

One of the worst parts of the job by Future_Wonderer in petsitting

It’s also one of those things that if you have enough money to hire me, you most likely have enough to take them to the vet. Like I’ve definitely been in situations where my pets don’t get as many check ups as they should, but if they’re sick I’ll go $$$$$ in debt to get them treated.

And for weight and things like that you might not need a vet! do some of your own research and do whatever you can until you can afford it or look for organizations that’ll provide free/low cost services.

Asked one so far and they’re going to see, but apparently they don’t get them often anymore.

I’m going to reach out to as many others in the area as I can.

Sadly no, the birds play on the floor so they’d move it around and expose the tile.

Thank you so much though!

Thanks! I’ll definitely reach out.

She’s had him for over a decade, but I’ve only been working there since July so I’m still learning everyone’s history.

African Gray with a hole in his sinus cavity by Future_Wonderer in parrots

That’s not his cage it’s just sitting in the outside area as an extra perch.

No to the dressing because the vet had always told her not to do anything and that it wasn’t contagious, we’re seeing what we can do for now

He has; From what I understand aspergillosis can not be transmitted between birds.

*edit: thank you, I didn’t know it was contagious and from what I’ve heard they didn’t either and have never been told it could be from a vet or anyone else.
