Description
Rodents and rabbits represent a significant percentage of modern day pets and therefore present a challenge to the veterinarian in small animal practice. This text contains chapters covering rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, mice, rats and gerbils. Each specific animal chapter covers nutrition, infectious diseases, anaesthesia, metabolic diseases and parasitic infections. This book is intended for veterinarians, veterinary students, veterinary nurses and technicians, research scientists and laboratory animal workers.
