Exotic Animal Veterinary Care in Lahore & Karachi
Pakistan’s Trusted Exotic Pet Referral Centre
Exotic pets — birds, reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, and other nontraditional companions — require veterinary professionals who understand their unique anatomy, physiology, and behaviour. These species hide illness exceptionally well, and by the time symptoms become obvious, the condition is often advanced. Zia Vet Clinic has served as Pakistan’s leading exotic animal referral centre since 2014. Our team holds internationally recognised credentials and has over a decade of experience with species most general practices cannot handle. We accept referral cases from clinics across the country.
Species We Treat
Our exotic department provides care for parrots, cockatiels, budgerigars, lovebirds, macaws, and other psittacines. We treat reptiles including tortoises, turtles, bearded dragons, geckos, chameleons, and snakes. Our team also cares for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, hedgehogs, ferrets, and sugar gliders. If your species is not listed, contact us — chances are we can still help.
Annual health assessments tailored to your exotic pet’s species, including weight monitoring, nutritional evaluation, and husbandry advice.
In-house blood testing, faecal analysis, microbiology, digital radiography, and ultrasound adapted for small and exotic species.
Species-specific protocols for respiratory infections, GI disorders, metabolic bone disease, egg binding, feather-destructive behaviour, parasitic infections, and more.
Soft tissue surgery, abscess removal, tumour excision, fracture repair, and reproductive surgery with exotic-appropriate anaesthesia and monitoring.
Incorrect diet and environment are the leading causes of illness in exotic pets. We provide detailed guidance on enclosure setup, temperature, humidity, lighting, and nutrition.
