About this service
Emergency care is intended for pets showing signs that need a veterinary assessment without delay.
We recommend calling before you travel: this lets the team understand the situation, guide you and prepare to receive your pet. Availability depends on clinic hours, so it is always best to confirm by phone.
When should you see the vet?
- Difficulty breathing or unusually colored gums.
- Blows, falls, being hit by a vehicle or bleeding wounds.
- Suspected ingestion of something toxic or a foreign object.
- Seizures, fainting or sudden weakness.
- Persistent vomiting or diarrhea, or a swollen abdomen.
- Difficulty urinating or obvious pain.
This information is general and does not replace an assessment by a veterinarian.
