What to Do in an Emergency

  1. Stay Calm & Assess: Check your pet's breathing, consciousness, and for visible injuries or toxins. Move them to a safe, quiet area.
  2. Call Immediately: Contact your emergency vet or poison control. Have your pet's weight, age, and symptoms ready.
  3. Do Not Induce Vomiting: Unless explicitly instructed by a professional, inducing vomiting can cause more harm (especially with caustic substances or sharp objects).
  4. Prepare for Transport: Use a carrier, blanket, or flat board for injured pets. Keep them warm and minimize movement.
  5. Bring Documentation: Take your pet's vaccination records, recent photos of the symptom, and any packaging/toxins involved.
