We know how hard it is to leave your pet behind — especially when they’re sick or recovering. If your vet has recommended hospitalization, you might be wondering:
What exactly happens when my pet stays at the clinic?


At Creature Comforts, our goal is to make the experience as safe, gentle, and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

Here’s what you can expect during a typical hospital stay:

🏥 Step 1: Admission & Evaluation

Your pet will be admitted either after a scheduled visit or an emergency. We’ll walk you through why hospitalization is needed, what treatments are planned, and what updates you can expect.

 💬 We welcome your questions and want you to feel confident every step of the way.

💉 Step 2: Immediate Treatment & Monitoring

Whether it’s IV fluids, medication, oxygen support, or pain relief, we begin treatment right away. Vets and nurses regularly check on your pet throughout the day and night.


📋 Vitals, eating habits, mobility, and comfort are carefully tracked so we can adjust care as needed.

🛏 Step 3: A Comfortable, Calm Environment

Hospital stays aren’t just about medicine — they’re about comfort, too. Your pet will rest in a clean, temperature-controlled kennel, with cozy bedding and quiet surroundings. Cats and dogs are housed separately, and we use Fear-Free handling to reduce stress.

 🎵 We even play soothing music to help sensitive pets feel more at home.

📱 Step 4: Ongoing Communication With You

We know you’re thinking about your pet constantly, and we’re here to keep you in the loop.
You’ll receive regular updates by phone or WhatsApp, including how your pet is eating, resting, and responding to treatment.


 💌 Have a question or concern? Our nursing team is happy to check on your pet and reply during clinic hours.

🏡 Step 5: Discharge & Home Recovery Plan

When your pet is ready to go home, we’ll explain everything you need to know:
 • Medication instructions
 • Diet or activity changes
 • Signs to monitor at home
 • When to come back for a follow-up

We also send you home with any supplies you might need — from bandage care to pain relief.
