Is this an emergency?

It is an emergency if:
  • Your pet has experienced some kind of trauma, such as being hit by a car or a blunt object or falling more than a few feet.
  • Your pet isn't breathing or you can't feel a heartbeat.
  • Your pet is unconscious and won't wake up.
  • You have reason to suspect any broken bones.
  • Your pet is having trouble breathing or has something stuck in its throat.
  • Your pet has had or is having a seizure.
  • Your pet is bleeding from the eyes, nose or mouth, or there is blood in the urine or feces.
  • You think your pet might have ingested something toxic, such as snail bait, rat poison, household chemicals, or any kind of medication that wasn't prescribed.
  • Your pet has been bitten by a snake.
  • Your pet has been bitten by an insect and appears to be having a reaction (such as swelling, redness, or difficulty breathing).
  • Your pet, particularly your male cat, is straining to urinate, or is unable to do so.
  • Your pet shows signs of extreme pain, such as whining, shaking, and refusing to socialise.
  • Your pet collapses or suddenly can't stand up.
  • Your pet begins bumping into things or suddenly becomes disoriented.
  • You can see irritation or injury to your pet's eyes, or it suddenly seems to become blind.
  • Your pet's abdomen is swollen and hard to the touch, and/or it is gagging and trying to vomit.
  • You see symptoms of heatstroke: red gums, panting excessively, sudden collapse. Short-nosed dogs (Bulldogs, Boston Terriers, Pekinese etc) are particularly susceptible.
  • Your pregnant dog or cat has gone more than three to four hours between delivering puppies or kittens.

The health and wellbeing of your pet is our main concern, especially during an emergency. Though we strive to offer our patients the best in veterinary medical care, there may be times when your pet may require extensive emergency critical care.
