Which Emergency Vet Fits Your Night
You want the closest
Westside in Serangoon Gardens is the nearest round-the-clock option we found. It publishes its fees, which helps when you are deciding in a hurry.
You are not sure it is an emergency
Call. VES triages by phone and tells you whether to come in now. Companion Vet also says to call if you are unsure, and staff will advise.
You are already heading east or into town
Advanced VetCare’s Bedok branch and Companion Vet near Balestier are both 24 hours. Choose the one your driver can reach fastest.
It is not your pet
For an injured community cat or dog that is seriously hurt, unconscious, or a danger to the public, call AVS on 1800 476 1600 straight away. For non-life-threatening injuries, AVS suggests taking the animal to a vet or contacting an animal welfare group.
Signs Your Pet Needs an Emergency Vet
Westside lists these as emergencies. If you see any of them, call a 24-hour vet now rather than waiting for your usual clinic to open.
- Difficulty breathing, or signs of heat stress.
- Straining to pass urine.
- A difficult birth.
- Severe vomiting or diarrhoea.
- A swollen, bloated belly.
- Swallowing a toxin or a foreign object.
- Seizures, collapse or being unable to stand.
- Extreme pain, or injury from a road accident or fall, or severe lameness.
How to Get Your Pet Seen, Step by Step
- Phone the hospital. Describe what is happening so the team can prepare, or tell you whether to come in at all.
- Grab the folder. Past medical records, current medicines, and photos or videos of the symptoms. A short clip of a seizure or a limp shows the vet what you saw, even if it has stopped by the time you arrive.
- Bring the evidence. If your pet swallowed something, bring the packaging, the plant or the leftover object.
- Arrange the ride. Book a car or ride you know will take pets, with a carrier or towel ready.
- Bring the decision-maker. Westside asks for an adult who can give consent and make financial decisions.
- Expect triage. A nurse checks your pet on arrival and the most critical cases are seen first, so waits grow when a critical patient comes in. For an unstable pet, you may be asked to sign a resuscitation plan (STAT) form.
- Ask for an estimate. Westside gives a written estimate before treatment.
What an Emergency Vet Costs
Westside publishes its fees: an emergency consultation is $180, and a public holiday consultation is $280. The consultation does not include tests or treatment. If your pet needs to stay in, the hospitalisation deposit is 50% of the initial estimate.
Companion Vet charges a night fee from 11pm to 7am, but does not publish the amount. VES, Advanced VetCare and Beecroft did not publish fees on the pages we checked, so ask on the phone. If cost is a worry, say so early and ask what the options are.
Neighbour’s Tips for Pet Emergencies in Punggol
- Save two numbers tonight. Westside plus one backup. When the nearest hospital is busy with a critical case, a second option saves time.
- Keep a pet folder on your phone. Vaccination records, medicine names and doses, and your daytime vet’s details in one album.
- Know that holidays cost more. At Westside, a public holiday consultation is $100 more than a regular emergency one.
- Do not assume every branch is open. Advanced VetCare’s Balestier, Outram and Balmoral Plaza branches are 9am–9pm and closed on public holidays; only Bedok runs through the night.
- Watch for Beecroft’s move. It relocates to Annex @ Furama on Havelock Road in December 2026. Check the address before setting off.
- Keep pets cool on hazy or hot days. Heat stress is on the emergency list. Our haze and pets guide has practical ideas.
- Know your everyday vet’s hours too. Many problems can wait for a daytime clinic. Our vets and pet life guide lists them.
If It Is Urgent Right Now
- Your pet is struggling to breathe, collapsed or fitting: call Westside on +65 6931 0095 and start travelling.
- Your pet swallowed something toxic: call a 24-hour vet now, and bring the packaging.
- A community animal is badly hurt: call AVS on 1800 476 1600.
- A person has been bitten and is seriously hurt: call 995.
