Every pet owner has been faced with a situation where their pet acts odd and it’s late in the evening. The question always arises, should you get to the animal hospital in Chicago now or is it something that can wait?
It’s never wrong to inquire:
If you feel that there really is something wrong with your pet there is nothing to feel odd about if you call the vet. A typical animal hospital in Chicago is used to emergency situations and they know how to deal with them. You can be assured that the animal hospital will either provide around the clock service or they will provide a referral to a hospital that does.
No one knows your pet better than you do, if you sense or see that there is something not quite right or your pet is behaving in a strange way this could very well be a sign of a real problem, one that really does need attention. To you it may just be a “feeling” but you should not hesitate to contact the vet. A vet will be able to ask a few straight forward questions, with the answers you provide the vet will know whether you should bring it in now or whether you can wait until the morning.
Be prepared:
As you never know when your pet may need care, the best thing you can do is be prepared for the eventuality. The next time you bring your pet to the animal hospital in Chicago find out what you should do in the event of an emergency situation. Find out their normal opening times, find out if they are open on weekends and find out if they can refer you at other times.
As a responsible pet owner the best thing you can do is to trust your instincts. If you think there is something wrong, there probably is. Contact Metropolitan Veterinary Center for more details. We are also on facebook.com.
