If this is an emergency

Emergency care, right now.

Happy's Vet is not a 24-hour emergency hospital. We operate during scheduled business hours, Monday to Friday. If your pet is in a life-threatening situation, please call one of the emergency hospitals below or go straight there — do not wait for a reply from us.

On your way there

A few things that make the first few minutes at the hospital go faster.

1

Call before you drive

A quick call lets the team prepare for your arrival and confirms they can see your pet. It also means someone can talk you through what to do on the way.

2

Bring what you know

Any medications your pet is on, roughly when symptoms started, and anything they may have eaten or gotten into. Photos of packaging help more than you would think.

3

Tell us afterwards

Once things are stable, let us know what happened. We will fold it into your pet's records and pick up the follow-up care from there.

Please confirm details before you travel

If you are unsure whether a situation is an emergency, calling any of the numbers above is always the safer choice.
