What is an emergency?

A pet emergency is any sudden and severe health issue that requires immediate veterinary attention to prevent serious harm or death. Common emergencies include difficulty breathing, seizures, trauma from accidents, poisoning, or severe pain.

If your pet shows signs of distress, rapid medical intervention is often necessary to stabilise their condition and prevent further complications.

What is NOT an emergency?
Non-emergencies for pets include routine care such as vaccinations, grooming, and annual check-ups. These services are important for maintaining your pet's health but don't require immediate attention. Issues like mild skin irritations, slight limping without pain, or occasional vomiting may also be monitored at home before scheduling a regular vet visit.
