Urgent care

Call us now if you’re seeing

• Difficulty breathing, or breathing with an open mouth in a cat

• Repeated attempts to vomit or urinate without producing anything

• Collapse, seizure, or sudden inability to stand

• A swollen, hard or painful abdomen

• Bleeding that doesn’t stop with gentle pressure

• Suspected ingestion of anything toxic, including human medication, chocolate, grapes, raisins, xylitol, antifreeze or rodent bait

• A road traffic accident, even if they seem fine afterwards

• Sudden distress in a rabbit, or a rabbit that has stopped eating

Do not wait to see if it improves, and do not attempt to treat it at home. Call (555) 018-4400 during opening hours, or [emergency hospital name] on [number] at any time. Describe what you’re seeing and we’ll tell you what to do next.

When we’re closed

Juniper is open Monday to Friday 8am to 7pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm. Outside those hours our clients are covered by [emergency hospital name] at [address], open 24 hours on [number]. They have our records access arrangement in place, so they’ll know your pet’s history.

[Replace this section with your own out-of-hours arrangement before publishing.]

What to bring

Whatever they got into, if you have it: packaging, the plant, the remains of the chew. A photo of what you’re worried about if it’s intermittent. Your pet’s medication list. Someone else to drive if you can, because you shouldn’t be doing both.

What it costs

Urgent appointments are charged at our standard consultation rate during opening hours. Diagnostics and treatment are quoted as we go, and we will always tell you the number before proceeding, including when the honest answer is that the next step is expensive.
