How to use this card
- Complete it in permanent ink and attach a clear, recent photo.
- Confirm medication names and doses against the current veterinary label.
- Save the same contacts in every household member's phone.
- Place one copy on the fridge and another with the carrier or emergency bag.
- Review it after every medication change and at least every six months.
- Create a separate card for each pet so instructions cannot be confused.
This card helps a caregiver or emergency responder find essential information quickly. It is not a substitute for veterinary records, a written treatment plan, or professional advice.
