How to Identify a Pet Emergency

Some emergencies are obvious, such as injuries from a car accident or a dog fight. Others develop quietly and worsen fast, which can make it harder to know when veterinary care is needed. If you’re unsure, it’s always safer to call. We can help you determine whether your pet requires immediate attention.

Symptoms that require emergency veterinary care include:

  • Difficulty breathing

  • Collapse or inability to stand

  • Seizures

  • Uncontrolled vomiting or diarrhea, especially with blood

  • Suspected toxin ingestion

  • Pale gums or signs of shock

  • Sudden swelling, hives, or severe allergic reactions

  • Trauma or suspected broken bones

  • Inability to urinate (especially in male cats)

  • Eye injuries or sudden vision changes

  • Heat stroke symptoms

  • Pregnancy complications
