We understand that sometimes your pet needs care today. That is why Crown Town Animal Hospital is proud to offer same-day veterinary visits for urgent needs. Whether your pet woke up feeling under the weather, our team is here to help when waiting is not an option.

Same-day visits are ideal for:

  • Sudden limping or discomfort

  • Ear infections or eye issues

  • Minor wounds or lacerations

  • Vomiting or diarrhea (without other emergency symptoms)

  • Skin issues or allergic reactions

We are committed to being here for you when your pet needs us most. Same-day appointments are available during our regular hospital hours and are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. 

If your pet needs to be seen today, please call us as early as possible to check availability.

After-Hours Emergencies

Urgent vs. Emergency Care: How to Tell the Difference

At Crown Town Animal Hospital, we offer same-day urgent care for pets who need to be seen quickly but are not experiencing a life-threatening emergency. Understanding the difference between urgent and emergency care can help you make the right decision when your pet is feeling unwell.

When to Seek Emergency Care:

Your pet should be taken to an emergency facility immediately if experiencing any of the following:

  • Difficulty breathing or choking

  • Seizures or collapse

  • Trauma, such as being hit by a car or falling from a height

  • Uncontrolled bleeding

  • Ingestion of a toxic substance, including chocolate, xylitol, medications, or other poisons

  • A swollen, firm abdomen with retching or unproductive vomiting (possible bloat)

  • Inability to urinate, especially in male cats

  • Loss of consciousness or extreme lethargy

  • Labor that is not progressing in a pregnant pet

If an emergency happens after hours, we recommend you seek the services of the after-hour emergency pet clinic listed below. They will coordinate care with us, and we will provide necessary follow-up care.
