Petahead is an immersive online platform that offers educational courses and resources for owners passionate about ZooMed pets (exotic animals). Our goal is to provide reliable and up-to-date information to help you care for your unique pet.

Zoological companion animal is the nomenclature officially used by the American College of Zoological Medicine (ACZM) and includes all non-traditional pets, such as rabbits, parrots, snakes, and much more!

The term “exotic” is generally used by the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners (ABVP) to categorize the veterinary specialty: exotic companion mammals, which excludes some important species kept as pets.

Being inclusive is an important aspect of PETAHEAD. That is why at PETAHEAD we use the term “ZooMed” instead of “exotics”, to make sure we completely encompass all non-traditional species we work with. No species left behind!

Petahead offers online courses taught directly by specialists in zoological medicine (ZooMed). These courses cover various topics related to the care, health, and well-being of exotic animals. Additionally, we offer a teleconsulting service where owners can receive especialist advice and guidance from our veterinary specialists via phone, text, or online. We also offer handouts for owners to take great care of their pets.

Our online courses are taught by veterinary specialists who have extensive experience and expertise in zoological medicine. These professionals have dedicated years to studying and practicing veterinary medicine, specializing in the care of exotic animals.
