I have taken the time to create a list of exotic vets that see pet rats in Michigan. This includes emergencies, spay/neuter, all inclusive services, and if a service is not provided. Each clinic was called and asked to confirm the information collected on the list. Updated 7/17/2023.

There are some medications you should always try to have on-hand in the event the vet is not open and can be treated at home, or for emergency purposes. Please note you should always seek professional help with dosage as it varies via weight. Here is what I recommend:

  • Doxycycline

  • Liquid Iodine

  • Cohesive bandage

  • Bleeding control applicant

  • Saline spray

  • KITTEN revolution

  • Gauze

  • Gel eye drops

  • Liquid baytril

  • Liquid children’s ibuprofen

  • Clean needle-less syringe for feeding

  • Applesauce to mix meds in

  • Small kitchen scale
