A vet for my rats

21 17:41:10

Question
I have two female rats, Daisy & Lucy, that are about a year and a half old.  They have both developed tumors in the past two weeks.  I'm needing to find a vet in my area who is knowledgeable about rats.  The vet in my town is not.

I live in Pampa, Texas in the panhandle of Texas.  I'm willing to drive.

Answer
There are very few exotic vets around you, many are 5 hours away.
Here is a clinic that sees exotics below but being they are not members of the Association of exotic mammal Vets, I cannot really say how good or bad they are. You are way out there huh? I even checked OK for you and there isnt anything near you!


Ross Osage Animal Clinic
(806) 331-8387
2710 S Osage St, Amarillo, TX 79103

Here is a link to the AEMV. Hopefully you can find a vet in your area. They are all exotic vets that are listed and there are 22 in Texas.
