Planning for an Emergency 

You never know when an emergency is going to happen, and we understand that in an emergency it can be shocking and stressful. That’s why it’s really helpful to have emergency preparations in case your pet suddenly falls ill without any warning that it’s going to happen. In the case that you require emergency out of hours services, make sure you plan ahead. Here’s a few tips from Gower Vets that you could follow to make sure you are covered in case of an emergency:

  • Have Gower Vets number in your phone, as well as the out of hours emergency phone number
  • Familiarise yourself with where the out of hours practice is
  • Plan how you would get there in the case of an emergency for daytime and night travel
  • Is there anyone you can ask for help who can assist you with getting your pet to the correct place of care?
  • Perhaps put an emergency bag together with your pet’s medication or favourite comfort toy in case they are admitted into the surgery for emergency care.
