Why would your pet need intensive care?
Not all situations can be handled in a standard consultation room. Some pets require round-the-clock monitoring, advanced equipment, and rapid medical response. ICU care bridges that gap, offering the highest level of support when your pet is most vulnerable.
Whether it's following major surgery, trauma, or a serious illness, intensive care ensures your pet is never left unattended. Every heartbeat, breath, and temperature shift is monitored continuously. This close supervision helps catch complications early and improves the chances of recovery.

What happens if your pet needs ICU?
If your pet arrives in unstable condition, such as struggling to breathe, in shock, or too weak to stand, our vets will assess them immediately.
When intensive care is the safest option, we’ll explain everything clearly, begin treatment, and admit your pet into the ICU. Our team provides updates throughout, so you feel informed and supported.
How do we monitor your pet’s vital signs?
In our ICU, we use the Runyes Veterinary Patient Monitor, a trusted machine explicitly designed for animal care. It helps us keep a constant eye on your pet’s heart rate, breathing, oxygen levels, and more, around the clock.
This advanced monitor alerts our team to even the most minor changes, so we can respond immediately and adjust care as needed. It’s one of the many tools we use to make sure your pet stays safe, stable, and supported every step of the way.
When is ICU typically needed?
ICU care is reserved for when your pet’s condition is life-threatening or requires constant, specialised monitoring.
After major or emergency surgery
Severe infection or sepsis
Poisoning or toxic ingestion
Seizures or collapse
Heatstroke or hypothermia
Heart failure or arrhythmias
If your pet is facing any of these conditions, our ICU team provides the critical support needed to stabilise and begin recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How will I know if my pet needs ICU care?
ICU admission is always based on veterinary assessment. If your pet is unstable, struggling to breathe, unresponsive, or recovering from a serious procedure, our vet may recommend ICU as the safest option.
Can I visit my pet while they’re in the ICU?
In most cases, we limit visits to reduce stress and allow for uninterrupted monitoring. However, we understand the emotional difficulty and may allow limited visits depending on your pet’s condition. Please ask our team.
Will I receive updates during my pet’s stay?
Yes. We provide regular updates on your pet’s condition, treatment plan, and progress. If there are any changes in their status, we’ll contact you immediately.
How long will my pet need to stay in the ICU?
It depends on your pet’s condition and how they respond to treatment. Some pets may need only a few hours of support, while others require several days of continuous care.
What should I bring if my pet is admitted to ICU?
You don’t need to bring anything unless instructed. We provide all necessary medical support, but in some cases, familiar items like a blanket or toy may help comfort your pet. Ask the attending vet first.
Is ICU care expensive?
ICU care involves advanced monitoring, equipment, and 24-hour staff supervision, so it is generally more costly than standard care. We’ll always explain estimated costs upfront and keep you informed of any changes.
