Hi, my name is Shrek. Donkey and I went out for street tacos last night.I'm fine, but for the last few hours he's been stuck in the bathroom throwing up. Our regular Fairy Godmother can see him this afternoon. But should we come in right now?

Always give monitoring instructions for signs of condition worsening.

My pet has been having diarrhea for the last day. He is still eating and drinking. But taking a LOT of bathroom breaks. I can get into my regular vet tomorrow. But do i need to come in now for an emergency exam?
- If you can get in to your rDVM within the next 24 hours we recommend that.
- If the diarrhea becomes strictly blood or gelatinous we recommend coming in sooner
- If your pets gums become pale, or your pet seems to be getting worse in any way, we recommend seeking medical care immediately.

Whats the difference between Exam Only & Immediate Care.
Exam Only: A doctor will examine your pet and come discuss with you any treatments BEFORE they perform them. Must get approval from owners to do anything.
Immediate Care: Clients approve the doctor to use up to $800.00 of their money to STABILIZE the pet if needed. BEFORE the doctor comes to talk to them about treatments.
