When Does Your Pet Need Urgent Care?

As a responsible pet owner, you want to recognize the signs that something may be wrong with your pet’s health. There are many situations where your pet may need urgent care. While these issues may not be severe enough to speed in for an emergency visit, they still require timely veterinary attention to prevent further complications. A professional evaluation from a veterinarian will ensure that your pet receives the care they need. Some common reasons to seek urgent care for your pet include:
  • Persistent vomiting or diarrhea
  • Loss of appetite for more than a day
  • Trouble chewing or eating
  • Increased thirst or urination
  • Struggling to urinate/defecate
  • Mild to moderate limping or lameness
  • Coughing, sneezing, or nasal discharge
  • Skin irritations, rashes, or hot spots
  • Minor cuts or wounds that aren’t healing properly
  • Swollen/red eyes or eye discharge
  • Ear infections with symptoms like head shaking or ear discharge
  • Mild allergic reactions, such as itching
  • Aftercare for orthopedic surgery like splinting
  • Signs of pain, including yelping or hiding
  • Sudden, unexplained changes in behavior

Seeking Urgent Care for Pets: What to Do

It can be stressful when your pet suddenly isn’t feeling well. If your pet is showing signs that they need urgent care, please give us a call for guidance. Our team will assess the situation and determine whether your pet should be seen right away. While same-day appointments and walk-ins are welcome, we appreciate a call ahead so we can prepare for your pet’s arrival.

In many cases, we can handle urgent care situations on-site at PetSmart Veterinary Services: Springfield. However, if your pet’s condition requires more advanced emergency treatment, we can assist with stabilizing them and providing a referral to a specialty emergency hospital. If your pet requires urgent care outside of our business hours, please contact your closest 24-hour animal hospital.
