If there is no emergency clinic in the area, all are open 24/7 I believe,
at least they are in NY, I would continue to contact my vet.
My vet has a service when he's not there. He can be reached at any
time. If your vet does not have such a service I would get a new vet.
What good is a vet if they cannot be reached during an emergency.
If you live out in the country and can't get into town than YT would
be your best bet for the time being until a vet can be reached during
the day. Common sence is all that is required to handle any emergency.
An emergency is that, an emergency. Every minute can count.
For the most part, I don't believe most people, who post these emergencies,
have no vet or clinic they can go to. Looking for a quick fix dosen't help
in emergencies.
