Your Companion
We treat your sick or injured pet with the loving care every family member deserves—any time of day, every day of the year. We are a VECCS Level 1 facilitiy.
Avets believes in providing your pet the best care available, so we search out the most passionate, highly trained veterinarians in the country.
When your pet needs extraordinary care, we’ll be here for you with a wide range of specialty and emergency services.
Cats love to explore and with the weather getting nicer, you may find your cat wanting to spend more time outside. Before letting your feline friend outdoors, make sure you are aware of any poisonous plants in your area 🌸
If you think your pet may have come in contact with something toxic, call the ASPCA Poison Control Center at 1-888-426-4435. If they recommend immediate veterinary care, we are always open 24/7. For more information, visit: bit.ly/2YF2hn5.

Astraphobia-huh?? Astraphobia is the extreme fear of thunderstorms! ⛈️ ⚡️
Thunder and lightning can be scary enough some for people, and especially for some pets. Pet storm phobias can often get worse as your pet gets older, or if their fear is put off and ignored.
For some fear free information on how you can help your pet feel less anxious during the next thunderstorm, visit:

As part of our commitment to providing compassionate care to our clients and their pets, Pawprint Oxygen is now being used at Avets!
Pawprint Oxygen is a system developed by Aeronics Inc. which are lightweight, aluminum oxygen canisters that are more easily transported than large traditional tanks - this can benefit pets in respiratory distress that need to be transported to a hospital. You can discuss the potential use of Pawprint Oxygen during a visit at Avets.
Pawprint Oxygen and Avets were recently featured in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette! Learn more by visiting bit.ly/2Z0DWZ3.
