If your pet is experiencing active seizures, cluster seizures, or status epilepticus, these are considered \u201cRED\u201d \u2013 or true emergencies \u2013 on our Fast Track Triage system. We advise you to seek immediate veterinary care. Please call ahead of your arrival so the veterinary team knows to expect you!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Note that a single seizure that lasts less than five minutes with full recovery is considered a \u201cGREEN\u201d case on our Fast Track Triage system. This means emergency care isn\u2019t needed, but your pet should be evaluated by your family veterinarian within the next few days.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Seizures.
