After the vet: caring for your pet at home
After the vet: caring for your pet at home
We know it can be scary if your pet has just had emergency treatment. You may find that in the hours and days after bringing your pet home, you’re wondering if they’re healing OK, or if the strange behaviour they’re showing is normal.
If you want to talk with a vet, you can reach our Video Vets from 8am until 11pm, seven days a week. They’ll be able to view your pet remotely and talk through any concerns. And if it’s the evening or weekend and your daytime vet is closed, you can visit your nearest clinic.
We’ve also assembled some resources below from our vets that might help with some of the questions and issues you may have following some common procedures.
