A Nuzzle vet answers the after-hours line every night and all weekend. Call first, so we are ready when you arrive.
After hours and weekends
(828) 555-0119
Weekdays 7 pm to 7:30 am, Saturdays from 4 pm, all day Sunday. In opening hours, call the front desk on (828) 555-0140 and say it is urgent.
1
You call
A vet, not a call center, picks up and asks what happened.
2
We advise
What to do now, whether to come in, and what to bring.
3
We meet you
At the side door on State Street, with the room ready.
Is it an emergency?
Not sure which list it fits? Call anyway. That is what the line is for.
On the way
Only if it is safe. A hurt animal may bite, even you. Use a towel and keep your face away.
Press a clean towel firmly on the wound and keep pressing. Don't lift it to look.
Bring the packet or a photo of it. Don't make your pet vomit unless we tell you to.
Cool water, not ice, on the belly and paws. Air con on in the car.
Slide a board or a firm blanket under them and carry them flat.
