Can I wait for our vet tomorrow or should I go to ER?
Vet‑written answer
<p>Hello! It sounds like you’re observing something concerning with your pet, and I want to help you figure out what to do next. Without knowing all the details, I'll guide you with some general advice.<br><br><br><br>Firstly, think about the symptoms your pet is showing. If there's difficulty breathing, persistent vomiting or diarrhea, a swollen or bloated abdomen, difficulty standing or walking, or you've seen them ingest something toxic, these could be signs that an immediate visit to an emergency vet is necessary. These symptoms can indicate a serious condition that shouldn't wait until tomorrow.<br><br><br><br>However, if your pet seems stable and is eating, drinking, and behaving more or less normally, you might be okay to wait until your regular vet’s office opens. Meanwhile, ensure your pet is resting comfortably in a quiet place and has access to water.<br><br><br><br>Monitor their condition closely. Look for changes in behavior, energy levels, and any new symptoms. If they seem to be worsening in any way, it’s safest to seek emergency care.<br><br><br><br>For peace of mind and personalized guidance, I encourage you to book a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. We can help assess your pet’s specific situation and advise on the best next steps from there.</p>
