24 Hour Emergency Vets in Brisbane and Surrounds

If your pet needs help after midnight or we can’t answer the phone, these hospitals are open overnight. Call as soon as you can so the team can prepare for your arrival.

Go now if your pet:

  • Is struggling to breathe, has collapsed or is having a seizure.
  • Has been hit by a car or badly injured.
  • Has been bitten by a snake or may have eaten something toxic.
  • Is straining to urinate, particularly a male cat.
  • Has a swollen, tight belly.

Leave now and call on the way so the team is ready for you.

If your pet is stable

Call before you drive, because hours can change. Ask about fees and deposits when you ring. Emergency care costs more than a daytime consult.
