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.
We track heart rate, temperature, blood pressure, and breathing 24/7 to catch any concerning changes before they become critical.
Your pet receives IV fluids, pain relief, and medications as needed, adjusted in real time to their changing condition.
We provide oxygen therapy or ventilator support to assist pets struggling with respiratory distress, trauma, or lung-related illness.
If your pet can’t eat on their own, we provide syringe or tube feeding to maintain strength and support healing.
After surgery procedures, pets are monitored closely to manage pain, prevent complications, and ensure a smooth recovery process.
Our ICU is quiet, temperature-controlled, and designed to reduce sensory stress and promote calm during your pet’s stay.
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.
