Pet emergencies can range from sudden illnesses and injuries to accidents and toxic exposures. These situations require immediate attention and expert veterinary care to ensure the best possible outcome for the pet. Common emergencies may include difficulty breathing, seizures, trauma, ingestion of toxic substances, and sudden changes in behavior or consciousness. Recognizing the signs of a pet emergency and seeking prompt veterinary care can help save a pet’s life and prevent further complications.
