What's the difference between urgent care and an ER?
Urgent care and same-day clinics are for a sick pet that isn't in danger, such as vomiting, limping, small wounds, ear or eye problems, or a pet that's “off” but alert. A 24/7 emergency hospital is for trouble breathing, collapse, blue/gray gums, a long seizure, heavy bleeding, a toxin swallowed, or a male cat straining to pee. Many urgent-care clinics close overnight, and ERs see the sickest pets first, so minor cases may wait. Animal Emergency Hospital of the Strand is listed as an emergency hospital that is not 24/7; see its card for posted hours. There is a full printable checklist at https://vetsopentoday.com/urgent-or-er.html.
