Signs of Illness in Your Pets

Dogs and cats are excellent at pretending everything is fine, even when they are sick. The signs of illness are often very subtle, so you have to watch them closely. If you do notice anything abnormal, don’t rely on books or websites for a diagnosis. Contact your vet immediately.

Symptoms to watch for

  • Diarrhea
  • Repeated vomiting
  • Refusal to eat over 24 hours
  • Excessive thirst and urination
  • Red or swollen gums
  • Difficulty urinating - IF YOUR PET CANNOT URINATE, THAT IS AN EMERGENCY!
  • Runny nose and eyes
  • Itchy skin
  • Progressive weight loss
  • Tiredness


If your pets are in an emergency or if you have general inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact Veterinary Emergency Centre.
