An accident, respiratory distress, poisoning... veterinary emergencies can occur at any time, even in the middle of the night or on a public holiday.

To respond quickly and effectively, there is a toll-free national number to call: 3115, the veterinary emergency number.

Available free of charge from a mobile or landline phone, the veterinary emergency number 3115 is available 24/7. It allows you to contact an on-call veterinarian near you and quickly obtain advice or referral to an open veterinary clinic.

The veterinary emergency service covers dogs, cats, and NACs (New Companion Animals) throughout mainland France, and ServicesPourAnimaux recommends that you save this number to your phone now because responsiveness can save an animal's life.

What are the steps involved in emergency veterinary care?

1 _ Call ahead for veterinary emergencies: It is strongly recommended that you call 3115 before traveling to allow the veterinary team time to prepare and assess the severity of the emergency.

2 _ Reception at the veterinary clinic: You are greeted by the on-call staff. If the animal is in life-threatening distress, it is immediately transferred to intensive care. Otherwise, you wait in the waiting room for a veterinary consultation.

3 _ Veterinary consultation: The veterinarian assesses the animal's health. They make a diagnosis and perform initial veterinary care. Additional tests may be performed as needed (X-rays, ultrasound, lab tests, etc.).

4 _ Veterinary hospitalization: If the animal's health requires it, hospitalization may be proposed. A quote is provided to the animal's owner with an explanation of the treatment.

5 _ Discharge and veterinary follow-up: Upon discharge from a veterinary emergency, you will receive prescriptions, recommendations, and various medical documents. The on-call veterinarian can also refer you to a specialist such as an animal osteopath or schedule a short-term veterinary check-up.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): "3115 Emergency Response"

## Does 3115 work for exotic pets (rabbits, reptiles, birds)?

Yes, 3115 handles emergencies for exotic pets just as it does for dogs and cats, directing you to facilities equipped for these species.

## Is the 3115 number really free in 2026?

Absolutely. The call and connection via 3115 are completely free from any landline or mobile phone in mainland France.

## What if I don't know the address of the on-call veterinarian?

That's the whole point of 3115. When you call, the system uses your postal code or location to give you the exact address and directions to the nearest emergency clinic.

## Is video veterinary consultation possible for an emergency?

In 2026, video is an excellent triage tool, but it does not replace in-person care for a life-threatening emergency. If your pet is unconscious or in respiratory distress, don't waste time on a video call: immediately call 3115. Video veterinary consultation is ideal for obtaining a quick opinion on a minor symptom or behavioral concern before deciding whether to bring the animal in.
