My cat suddenly became ill with laboured breathing, right after he sicked up a large fur ball, and he was experiencing loss of mobility in his front paw as well, so I was very concerned and quite panicked. I called the vet, and they said it was not an emergency and that if I deemed it an emergency, to go to the DMV. So with a heavy heart I took him to the DMV.

I wouldn't trust my pet in her care ever. Read Less
