Stay calm and act quickly. Here's what to do when your pet needs urgent care.
Take a deep breath. Pets sense your panic. Quickly assess the situation — breathing, bleeding, consciousness, and any visible injuries.
Dial 1-800-PAW-SEMR immediately. A trained veterinary professional will guide you through first aid and advise on next steps.
If trained and safe to do so, apply basic first aid: control bleeding with pressure, keep your pet warm, and avoid giving human medication.
Use a carrier or flat surface for transport. Keep your pet still, minimize movement, and head to the nearest emergency clinic.
If your pet has ingested anything toxic, act fast. Time is critical.

Common questions about our emergency pet care services.
Stay calm. Clear the area around your pet to prevent injury. Do not put your hands near their mouth. Time the seizure — if it lasts longer than 5 minutes, this is a critical emergency. Once it stops, keep your pet calm and quiet, and seek veterinary care immediately. Call our emergency line at 1-800-PAW-SEMR for guidance.
Call the ASPCA Poison Control at (888) 426-4435 immediately. Have the product packaging ready. Do NOT induce vomiting unless instructed by a professional, as some substances cause more damage coming back up. Note the time of ingestion and the approximate amount consumed.
Emergency vet costs vary widely depending on the situation — from $100 for a basic visit to several thousand dollars for surgery or ICU care. Paws Source Pro and Elite members receive discounted emergency consultations. We recommend pet insurance for financial protection against unexpected emergencies.
