Laura Stern, DVM, DAVBT, senior toxicologist for the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, explains whether or not exotic pets present differently when they are suffering from toxicity.

“There really aren't a lot of differences in how toxicities present in exotics versus in companion animals or even large animals. Pretty much depending on what the toxin is, you can see most anything. A lot of times when you're seeing an acute onset of signs—so they were fine one minute and they weren't the next—you suspect that there might be a toxicity. Sometimes you'll see depression, sometimes you'll see them get very agitated, certainly most of the time if you've got a dyspneic bird or if you have a pet that's having seizures, you know that something's very wrong and you're going to want to get them right in.”
