Nebulisers for Birds?

Well, animals of all types do get respiratory disorders and diseases and quite frequently we receive emails and calls from Vets, Zoo’s, Animal Clinics as well as individuals. 
For some species there has to be a certain amount of D.I.Y when it comes to fashioning medication chambers and accessories in order that the poor animal receives an effective therapy and nebulisers with a higher pressure rather than a technologically designed mouthpiece work the best.  As for the medication and treatment regime, that’s completely in the hands of your vet or animal health practitioner as a nebuliser isn’t suitable for every animal and comes with many contra indications and complications, just as it does for people.

One successful story came from Jayne:

“The speed with which your nebulizer was delivered, saved a little bird from suffocation. Her lungs and air sacs and become so congested with infection a nebulizer was the only effective way for the medicine to reach in and clear her airway, as she was too weak to be transported to a vets surgery. It was a great service and, again, much appreciated.”

Jayne works for Abijoes  which is a non-profit organisation that is raising money to build a unique bird sanctuary that will enable disabled people to become active participants in bird rescue, rehabilitation and care. They are based in Cornwall and if you would like to learn more I’m sure they would be interested  to hear from you either via their website, by phone 01736 757656 or email

We couldn’t begin to advise on the hows and why’s of nebulising animals, its an area we only touch on when contacted by you or animal health practitioners, but we do know quite a great deal about the units themselves and you can view our range by clicking HERE

 Always contact your vet if you have any concerns at all about the heath of your animal, we will help where we can and we are always interested to hear of your experiences you can phone 01942 701210, email or post
