Effective Date: April 24, 2026


Business Name: Avian & Exotic Urgent Care (“Avian & Exotic Urgent Care,” “we,” “us,” “our”)


Website: exoticurgentcare.com


Service Area: San Leandro, CA and surrounding areas

By accessing or using our website, contacting us, submitting a form, requesting an appointment, or using any related services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the Services.


1) Who we are


Avian & Exotic Urgent Care provides veterinary services for exotic pets through a mobile clinic and related communications channels (phone, text, email, and website forms). Availability varies and capacity may be limited.


2) Important emergency and medical disclaimer


Website information is not veterinary advice. Content on our website, social media, emails, or texts is for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional veterinary diagnosis or treatment.


No online veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR). Contacting us, submitting a form, or receiving general guidance does not create a veterinarian-client-patient relationship. A VCPR is established only after a veterinarian evaluates your pet as required by applicable law.


If your pet is experiencing a life-threatening emergency, call immediately. Do not rely on email or web forms for urgent needs. If we are unavailable or at capacity, seek the nearest appropriate emergency veterinary facility.


3) Eligibility and responsible use


You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Services. You agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete information about you and your pet

  • Use the Services lawfully and respectfully

  • Not attempt to disrupt or compromise the website or related systems

  • Not submit false, misleading, or harmful information


4) Appointment requests, availability, and capacity


Submitting a request does not guarantee an appointment. We may decline or reschedule requests based on:

  • Medical urgency and triage considerations

  • Staffing and hours of operation

  • Equipment limitations

  • Hospitalization capacity

  • Safety or legal constraints


We may ask you for additional details (species, symptoms, duration, location, prior care) to determine the safest next step.


5) Triage and communications


We may provide general triage guidance based on the information you provide, but we cannot diagnose without an exam. You agree that:

  • You are responsible for monitoring your pet and seeking immediate care when needed

  • You will disclose relevant medical history, current medications, and prior diagnostics when requested


6) Fees, estimates, deposits, and payment


Fees vary by case. Any prices displayed are typical ranges and not a quote.


Estimates. When feasible, we provide an estimate before major steps. However, exotic cases can evolve quickly and may require additional diagnostics or treatment.


Payment due. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment is due at the time services are provided. We may pause or decline non-emergency services for unpaid balances.

Failed/chargeback payments. If a payment fails or is disputed/charged back, you are responsible for the amount owed plus any applicable administrative and third-party fees allowed by law.


7) Clinic logistics and safety


For everyone’s safety:

  • You agree to follow any instructions related handling your pet and safety protocols.

  • Pets must be appropriately contained (carrier, leash, secure enclosure as applicable)


8) Owner responsibilities


You represent that you are the lawful owner or authorized agent for the pet. You agree to:

  • Provide informed consent for care

  • Disclose known bite history or behavior risks

  • Follow discharge instructions and medication directions

  • Seek follow-up care as recommended


9) Follow-up and coordination with your regular veterinarian


We may request or share records with your primary veterinarian or referral facilities unless you inform us not to.


10) Text messages, calls, and email communications


By submitting your phone number or email, you consent to receiving communications from us related to:

  • Scheduling and appointment coordination

  • Triage follow-up and care instructions

  • Billing and receipts

  • Service updates

  • SMS/Texts: Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out of non-essential texts by replying STOP (or by contacting us), but opting out may limit our ability to coordinate care efficiently.

  • Represent you have the rights to submit it

  • Grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use it for providing services, responding to you, and for with your approval for use in marketing

13) Third-party links and tools


Our website may include links to third-party sites (maps, booking tools, payment processors, review platforms). We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, policies, or practices.


14) Disclaimers


To the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • The Services are provided “as is” and “as available”

15) Limitation of liability
