Emergency Vet FAQs
When should I take my pet to an emergency vet?
Seek emergency veterinary care immediately if your pet experiences difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, seizures, suspected poisoning, severe trauma, bloat (especially in large dogs), eye injuries, or sudden collapse. If you're unsure, it's always better to call and describe the symptoms.
Are emergency vets open 24 hours?
Many emergency veterinary clinics operate 24/7, but some may have specific emergency hours. Always call ahead to confirm availability, especially during holidays. The clinics listed above offer emergency services—check their specific hours or call to confirm immediate availability.
How much does emergency vet care cost?
Emergency veterinary care typically costs more than routine appointments due to after-hours staffing and specialist equipment. Expect consultation fees ranging from £100-£200, with additional costs for treatment, medication, and procedures. Many clinics accept payment plans or pet insurance—ask when you call.
