Journal prompt

If it is not urgent, log what changed and when. If it is urgent, seek care first.

Where PawSignal fits

PawSignal can mark risk and vet disclaimer needs, but it is not emergency care.

Care boundary

This page exists to make the boundary clear: urgent symptoms are outside the app.

FAQ

Should I wait for an AI result if symptoms are urgent?

No. Urgent symptoms should go directly to a veterinarian or emergency clinic.

Start with a clear photo. Keep the context over time.
