🚨 Snakebite Alert for Pets 🚨

With the recent season change and ongoing drought, we’ve seen a sharp increase in snakebite cases. Please use extra caution when outside with your pets, especially in tall grass, brush, or near water sources where snakes may be seeking shelter.

If you suspect your pet has been bitten by a venomous snake, seek veterinary care immediately. Snakebites, depending on the type, can be life-threatening, and timely treatment can be critical.

🚨🐾 Advanced Healing at Steel City Emergency Vets: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Pets 🐾🚨

At Steel City Emergency Vets, we're proud to be the only veterinary clinic in central Alabama offering Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) — a cutting-edge treatment that helps pets heal faster, feel better, and recover more fully. 🩺💨

🔬 What is HBOT?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves placing your pet in a specialized chamber where they breathe 100% oxygen in a pressurized environment. Under these conditions, oxygen levels in the blood significantly increase — not only by maximizing the oxygen bound to hemoglobin but also by increasing the amount of oxygen dissolved directly in the plasma. This heightened oxygen availability supports tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing in conditions where oxygen delivery is compromised.

💡 How can it help?
HBOT is a powerful, non-invasive therapy used to treat a wide range of conditions, including:
✔️ Severe wounds and bite injuries
✔️ Post-surgical recovery
✔️ Brain and spinal cord trauma
✔️ Burns and smoke inhalation
✔️ Pancreatitis
✔️ Infections that don’t respond well to antibiotics
✔️ Snake bites and crush injuries

🐶 Why choose Steel City Emergency Vets?
As the only veterinary provider of HBOT in central Alabama, we offer an advanced level of care that can make a real difference in your pet’s recovery and quality of life. Many patients show noticeable improvement in just a few sessions.

📞 Have questions or want to know if your pet could benefit from HBOT? Call us today or visit our website to learn more. 205-413-8989

🌞 Hot Weather = Heatstroke Risk for Pets! 🐾

As temperatures rise, so does the risk of heatstroke in our furry friends. Heatstroke (hyperthermia) can occur when a dog's body temperature climbs above 104°F (40°C) and they can no longer cool themselves effectively. This is a life-threatening emergency that can cause organ failure or death if not treated promptly.

🚨 Watch for these warning signs:

-Excessive panting or drooling
-Bright red gums
-Rapid heart rate
-Lethargy, weakness, or collapse
-Vomiting or diarrhea (possibly with blood)
-Confusion or unsteadiness
-Seizures

🐶 If you suspect heatstroke:

Move your pet to a cool area immediately (shade or A/C).

Apply cool (not cold) water to the neck, belly, groin and paw pads.

Offer small sips of cool water – don’t force it.

Use a fan to aid cooling.

Call us or head to the nearest veterinary clinic ASAP.

💡 Prevention Tips:
✔️ Always provide shade and fresh water.
✔️ Avoid walks and play during peak heat.
✔️ NEVER leave pets in parked cars – even for “just a minute”!
✔️ Know your pet’s risk – flat-faced breeds and long-haired animals are especially vulnerable.

Keep your pets safe this summer! 🌡️💧 When in doubt, give us a call – we’re here to help. 🐾❤️

🌟 Happy Veterinary Appreciation Day! 🌟

Today, we shine an extra bright light on the heroes behind the scrubs—our incredible emergency veterinarians. 💙

These dedicated doctors work through the night, on weekends, and every holiday, sacrificing sleep and time with their own families to be there when your pets need them the most.

From late-night emergencies to critical care cases, they’re the calm in the chaos, the steady hands in the storm, and the compassionate hearts behind every lifesaving decision.

They treat some of the sickest, most emergent patients—often with no warning and no time to spare—and do it with unmatched skill, grace, and empathy.

To our ER vets: thank you for your relentless commitment, your resilience, and your love for every patient who walks (or is carried) through our doors.

You are appreciated more than words can say. 🐾❤️

Memorial Day Pet Safety Tips 🇺🇸🐾

As we honor and remember our heroes this Memorial Day, don’t forget to keep your furry friends safe during the holiday festivities!

Here are a few quick safety tips to protect your pets this weekend:

🛟 Watch the Water: Pools, lakes, and beaches can pose serious risks. Not all pets are strong swimmers, and water safety gear is always a good idea.

🌭 Skip the Table Scraps: BBQ food might smell delicious, but fatty meats, bones, and sauces can lead to serious digestive issues.

☀️ Beware of Heat Exhaustion: Keep pets indoors or in shaded areas during the hottest parts of the day. Never leave them in a parked car!

💧 Hydration is Key: Make sure your pets have access to plenty of fresh, cool water—especially if they’re spending time outdoors.

We're here when you need us.

Steel City Emergency Vets is open 24/7 - including all holidays - to provide critical care and advanced referral services like CT, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and Surgical Referrals.

Have a safe and pet-friendly Memorial Day!

🌸 Happy Mother's Day! 🌸
Whether you're a pet mom, plant mom, or both — today we celebrate you!

Many people mark Mother’s Day with fresh flowers or new houseplants 🌿, but did you know that some common plants can be toxic to your furry friends?

🐾 Lilies, tulips, sago palms, and azaleas are just a few popular Mother's Day plants that can be harmful to cats and dogs. Even a small nibble can cause serious health issues.

This Mother’s Day, celebrate safely:
✅ Choose pet-safe plants
✅ Keep floral arrangements out of reach
✅ Call us if you think your pet may have eaten something toxic

From all of us at Steel City Emergency Vets, Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms — human and animal alike! 💐🐶🐱
