Meet Ava, the Sweetest Little Patient!
Yesterday, Dr. Ratliff had the pleasure of caring for Ava, a very special domestic rat who came in to have 2 mammary masses removed which are unfortunately common with them. Ava was an absolute sweetheart throughout her visit—she even gave us kisses! Her surgery & anesthesia went well, and she’s expected to make a full recovery.
Rats like Ava make wonderful pets—they are intelligent, affectionate, and form strong bonds with their humans. We’re honored to help care for all our ‘pocket pets’!
Join us in wishing Ava a smooth recovery! ❤️🐀❤️
