8 Emergency symptoms of sick dogs and cats that cannot wait
Illness in dogs and cats can occur at any age and can be caused by a variety of factors. For some symptoms, owners may still be able to wait and see. However, if your dog or cat develops these symptoms, it is recommended that you take them to an animal hospital or clinic immediately.
- Breathing problems, such as difficulty breathing, gasping for breath even when lying down or sitting, or the tongue turning dark red, purple, or unusually dark in color.
- Seizures, unconsciousness, or sudden paralysis, inability to move all or some parts of the body.
- Vomiting that doesn't stop throughout the day or vomiting for more than 1 day
- Bleeding from the eyes, ears, nose or mouth
- Fresh blood in the stool or bloody stool
- Injured or showing signs of pain as if hit by a car or hit by a large object.
- Suspected bone fracture, which may have been caused by an accident such as falling from a height, falling, or being hit hard.
- Poisoning or toxic substances, such as being bitten by a snake, centipede, toad, poison, household cleaning products, bathroom cleaners, various corrosive chemicals, eating certain human foods or medicines that are toxic to dogs or cats, such as paracetamol.
Or if your dog or cat has other symptoms besides the above symptoms, if the owner notices that their pet has abnormal symptoms, they can take them to see a veterinarian for immediate treatment without delay, for timely treatment and for the owner's peace of mind, so that their pets can have a good quality of life and stay with us for a long time.
