Chinchilla Day (2012)
AEMC members with the help of the UC Davis Vet Aide Club volunteered on President's Day with California Chinchilla Rescue and Adobe Animal Hospital's Dr. Johnson to give health checks over 200 small mammal pets. Our patients included chinchillas, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, ferrets and rabbits. Fostered/rescued animals and privately owned animals were given physical exams and minor procedures were performed by Dr. Johnson. Everyone enjoyed the day and learning about these nifty pets!
