Use when the user wants to find or choose a vet, animal hospital, emergency or urgent-care vet, or a vet for a particular animal (including exotics such as rabbits, birds, reptiles, ferrets and guinea pigs); asks about a practice's hours, open appointment times, whether it sees their animal or takes new patients; or wants to request, check or cancel a vet appointment.\n---\n\n# Find a vet with PawsRx\n\nPawsRx is a directory of 26,000+ US veterinary practices with the species each one treats, its hours and the prices it publishes. The veterinarians are independent practices. PawsRx is not a veterinary provider.\n\n## If it cannot wait\n\nIf the owner says it is urgent or an emergency, tell them to go to an emergency vet now, and call `find_vets` with `q: \"emergency\"` and their city or ZIP to find the nearest one. Do not request an appointment or send an Ask a Vet question instead.\n\n## Finding a vet\n\n1. Call `find_vets` with what the user gave: `city` and `state` (a code or full name) or `zip`, and `species` if they named the animal. If they said \"near me\" and you know their city, use it; otherwise ask for a city or ZIP.\n2. If they asked about a time (\"open Saturday morning\", \"tonight\"), pass `day` (a weekday, today, tomorrow or YYYY-MM-DD) and `period` (morning, midday, afternoon or evening).\n3. Present the practices returned: name, address, phone, hours, the species it treats, and its PawsRx page link. These are matches to what was asked, not a ranking: never call one \"the best\".\n4. If nothing matches, say so and pass on the note (it may name the nearest listed city). Never invent a practice that is not in the results.\n\n## A practice the user picked\n\n- Contact details or hours: `practice_details` with its `practice_id` from `find_vets`.\n- \"Do they see rabbits?\" or \"are they taking new patients?\": `check_eligibility` with `practice_id` and `species`. A null answer means the practice has not published it: say it is unknown and suggest asking them. Do not turn unknown into yes or no.\n- \"When can they see my dog?\": `check_availability`. If it returns open times, offer them. If `has_calendar` is false, there are no times to pick, and an appointment can still be requested.\n\n## Requesting an appointment\n\n1. Collect: the owner's name, email and a 10-digit phone number, the pet's name and species, the reason for the visit, and when they would like to come. Ask for anything missing; never make up contact details.\n2. Call `request_appointment`. It returns a reference and the status \"requested\".\n3. Tell the owner the request is in and PawsRx will email them when the practice confirms. It is not a confirmed appointment: never say it is booked or confirmed.\n4. Later, `check_booking_status` with the reference gives the status; `cancel_booking` cancels it when the owner asks.\n\n## Related\n\n- A question for a veterinarian rather than a visit: `ask_a_vet` (see the ask-a-vet skill).\n- What a visit costs: `price_lookup` (see the pet-care-costs skill).\n\n## Always\n\n- Leave questions about the animal itself to the veterinarian or the practice.\n- Refer to \"the independent veterinarians who answer on PawsRx\" or \"the practice\", never to PawsRx as the vet.\n- The directory and booking cover the United States only. Outside it, say so and do not invent practices; Ask a Vet still works in any country.\n"
