Google's vet listings only separate 'exotic animal' from 'general practice' — there's no field for which species a clinic actually treats, and rabbits and guinea pigs need different expertise (and often different anesthesia protocols) than birds or reptiles. Every vet on this page is confirmed from the clinic's own website or services list to treat rabbits and other small mammals, not just labeled 'exotic' in general.

Good to know
Do regular vets treat rabbits?
Many general practice vets will see rabbits for basic wellness checks, but rabbits have specialized dietary and anesthesia needs that not every general vet is trained for. For dental issues, GI stasis, or surgery, it's worth confirming the vet has specific small-mammal experience beforehand.
How do I find a vet who treats guinea pigs?
Look for a clinic that explicitly lists guinea pigs or "small mammals" among the species it treats, since "exotic vet" can otherwise just mean birds or reptiles. Calling the clinic directly and asking is the most reliable way to confirm before booking.
Can capybaras be pets?
Owning a capybara depends on regional wildlife and exotic animal regulations, as many areas require specialized permits or ban them entirely. In Connecticut, there are 23 exotic animal veterinarians on ExoticVetAtlas who can guide you on health and legal care requirements.
Can you have a fennec fox as a pet?
Fennec foxes can be kept as pets in certain jurisdictions, but they often require specific captive wildlife permits and specialized enclosures. Check local wildlife regulations in Connecticut, where 23 listed exotic veterinarians are available to assist with their unique care needs.
