Emergency & After-Hours Care Information

If your pet has an emergency when we are closed, help is nearby. Below are trusted emergency and after-hours clinics serving the Jackson area. Please call the clinic before you go, so their team can prepare for your arrival.

What to Do in an After-Hours Emergency

If you have an after-hours emergency, or you do not have a regular veterinarian and need urgent care, please contact one of the emergency clinics listed below. Most are open 24 hours, but calling ahead is always best.

If you are a current client of Kibby Park Animal Hospital with a non-urgent concern that can wait until we reopen, please call us at
517-787-5807 and leave a message. We will return your call during business hours.

For urgent concerns during our regular hours, call us first. We handle pet urgent care while we are open and can advise you on next steps.

Know the Signs of a Pet Emergency

Certain signs mean your pet needs immediate care. Go to an emergency hospital right away if your pet shows:

  • Trouble breathing or choking
  • Collapse, seizures, or loss of consciousness
  • Suspected poisoning or eating something toxic
  • A bloated, hard abdomen with unproductive retching
  • Severe bleeding that will not stop
  • Inability to urinate, especially in male cats
  • Major trauma, such as being hit by a car
  • Signs of extreme pain or distress

When in doubt, call an emergency clinic. Their team can help you decide whether your pet needs to be seen right away.
