Pet Emergencies: What to Do and What Not to Do

In an emergency every minute counts. Stay calm, keep your pet warm and still, and call your vet on the way.

Go straight to the vet if your pet

  • Is struggling to breathe
  • Has collapsed or had a seizure
  • Has heavy bleeding or a serious injury
  • May have eaten something toxic

Do not

Do not give human medicines, and do not make your pet vomit unless a vet tells you to.
