Is My Pet’s Problem an Emergency?
Treat it as an emergency and call a vet immediately if your pet has trouble breathing, has collapsed or is unconscious, is bleeding heavily, is having a seizure, has a swollen or bloated abdomen, cannot urinate, or may have eaten something poisonous.
If you are not sure whether your pet’s symptoms are serious, it is always safest to call us. You can also use our online
Symptom Checker for general guidance, though it does not replace speaking with a vet.

What to Do Before You Arrive at the Inner West Emergency Vet

Call ahead on (02) 9516 1466 so our nurses can be ready, and call (02) 8319 5555 after hours.
Keep your pet calm, warm and as still as possible - gently confine cats and small dogs to a carrier or box.


If your pet has been poisoned, bring the packet, plant or substance so the vet can identify it.
Apply gentle, steady pressure with a clean cloth to any heavy bleeding while you travel.


Do not give human medication or food unless a vet has told you to.
Bring your pet’s medical history, current medications and your vet records if you have them.


Drive safely, and have a second person hold or monitor your pet if possible.
