Emergency toolkit FAQ
- Does Felper replace a veterinarian?
- No. Felper provides general emergency guidance and helps you find clinics, but it does not diagnose your cat or replace professional veterinary care.
- When should I call a vet immediately?
- Call a vet immediately if your cat is collapsed, struggling to breathe, unable to pass urine, having seizures, bleeding heavily, or may have been poisoned. When in doubt, call a clinic for advice.
- Are clinic opening hours guaranteed to be current?
- No. Opening-hours information can change or be incomplete. Always phone the clinic before setting off, especially outside normal hours.
- When does Felper use my location?
- Felper requests your device location only after you choose to find nearby clinics. You can still use the first-aid guidance without sharing it.
