要点
- Stay calm — your pet needs you to think clearly
- Call the vet BEFORE coming so they can prepare
- Never give human medications without vet guidance
- Muzzle injured pets gently — even gentle pets bite when in pain
- Time is critical — don't wait to see if it gets better

Most Common Pet Emergencies
The top emergencies we see at RVC include: hit-by-car accidents, poisoning (toxic foods, chemicals), breathing difficulty, seizures, severe vomiting/diarrhea (especially with blood), bloat (gastric torsion in dogs), difficulty giving birth, heatstroke, and traumatic injuries. Knowing the signs helps you act fast.
What to Do Before You Leave
Call RVC at +853 6677 6611 to let us know you're coming. Keep your pet warm and still — wrap them in a towel or blanket. If there's bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth. For suspected poisoning, bring the packaging or substance. For seizures, don't put anything in your pet's mouth — just clear the area around them. Transport cats in a secure carrier.
What NOT to Do
Don't give human medications (ibuprofen, acetaminophen, and aspirin are toxic to pets). Don't try to set broken bones. Don't induce vomiting unless specifically told to by a vet. Don't put your fingers in the mouth of a seizing pet. Don't delay seeking care — waiting 'to see if it gets better' wastes precious time.
Being Prepared
Keep a pet first aid kit: gauze, bandages, antiseptic solution, digital thermometer, hydrogen peroxide (only if vet-directed), muzzle, and emergency contact numbers. Know your pet's normal vital signs: dogs 60-140 heart rate, 100-130 for cats. Normal temperature is 38-39.2°C (100.5-102.5°F). Keep your vet's number and the nearest 24/7 emergency vet saved in your phone.
