Signs Your Pet Needs Emergency Care
Not sure if your dog or cat has an emergency? While traumatic injury is often a clear sign that pets need emergency medicine, other symptoms may indicate that your pet needs an emergency vet.
Lameness or Difficulty Walking
If you notice sudden lameness, difficulty walking, or that your pet is not using one of their limbs, they may have suffered an injury.
At Metrovet, we will provide a comprehensive physical examination and treatment plan for all critical patients to address things like bone fracture, break, or dislocation and a soft tissue injury like a sprain.
Blood in Vomit or Diarrhea
You may need an appointment if you notice blood in your cat or dog's vomit or diarrhea. These symptoms can indicate a health problem that should be treated as soon as possible. Hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, or HGE, is a condition that can cause bloody vomit or diarrhea and can be caused by infections and more. The sooner the treatment, the better chance your pet can be on the road to recovery as quickly as possible.
