Our Austin Emergency Animal Hospital
Understands Urgent Care
Many of Austin’s family veterinarians are not open on nights, weekends, and holidays. Our
after-hour veterinarians
strive to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere for pet owners and
their pets during emergency situations. We treat many different kinds
of emergency situations including, trauma, heat stroke, snake bite,
breathing difficulties, and seizures. One potentially serious situation
our
emergency veterinary clinic often treats is the accidental
ingestion of a toxin. Many common plants, such as Sago Palm, may make
your pet extremely ill. Some of the
dog symptoms of sago palm toxicity are vomiting, bloody diarrhea, depression, and yellow mucus membranes.
Cat symptoms are similar to the
dog symptoms
If you suspect that your pet has ingested sago palm or any other poison
or toxin, including medications, call one of our two
after-hour veterinary hospitals immediately.
