Not a bad idea, BUT isn't it sort of implying that this forum is here for vetting advice? They do get a notice about moderation. My feelings are that IF they feel there is a need for an immediate answer, then they should not be posting here anyway. They already know they should be at a vet. Look how many get on here and hit us with the "don't tell me to go to a vet" line. Just gotta love those.
I just cannot comprehend how people get on an online forum when they should be on the way to a vet. I don't believe people are that stupid...I think they just do it to avoid spending money on a vet...in most cases that is.
