Author: Jessica L. Arrington (Fisher) December 2, 2025 Duration: 54:22

Panic helps no one. In this episode, Kara and I rip through the pet emergency mistakes that make things worse—and the integrative, fear-free steps that actually help. When to bolt to the ER vs. hold, how to stabilize and support (pain, calm, electrolytes), what belongs in your go-bag, and the exact questions to fire at the vet. Fast, practical, no fluff... with REAL experiences that Kara recently had during and after her move across the country.
