What’s urgent care for pets?
Urgent care for dogs and cats is designed to address issues and illnesses that shouldn’t wait until their next primary care appointment, but that aren’t severe enough for an emergency visit. Your pet may need an urgent care visit at your local Lovet if they’re exhibiting symptoms like:
Illness and infection
Coughing, sneezing, and runny nose; ear infections; eye issues like tearing, redness, discharge, squinting, excessive blinking, or rubbing at eyes; changes in behavior
Injuries
Bites and stings; cuts and scratches; pain or limping; paw wounds, cuts, or burns; broken and overgrown toenails
Digestion issues
Diarrhea or vomiting; changes in appetite; possible or known toxic or foreign body (toys, chews, etc.) ingestion; urinary issues like straining or frequent urination
Skin issues
Itching, scooting, or rashes; lumps, bumps, and growths; worms, fleas, ticks, or mites
