Every home with a fur baby should keep this important number near their phone with all other emergency numbers.

(888) 426-4435


It is the number for animal poision control hotline at the ASPCA. Whether or not you believe in the organization, it's a good number to have. There are lots of informative articles on keeping pets safe in your home.

Nothing worse than panicking and trying to find that number when you need it!
