Veterinary Emergency Services

| We are a founding member of the Chicago Veterinary
Emergency Services Association. The CVES facilities are available Nights, Weekends,
and Holidays. Always call ahead to let the emergency clinic know you're
coming so that they will be prepared to take lifesaving measures. Remember
to use them as a source of information if urgent questions or concerns arise
during the hours we are closed. |

Poison Control Center — Located at the
University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, the National Animal Poison
Control Center (NAPPC) is a non-profit service of the University of
Illinois. It is the first animal-oriented poison center in the United
States. Since 1978, it has provided advice to animal owners and conferred
with veterinarians about poisoning exposures. The NAPCC's phones are
answered by licensed veterinarians and board-certified veterinary
toxicologists. The NAPCC is staffed with veterinary health professionals
who are familiar with how different species respond to poisons and
treatment protocols. |
