NB: I advise my clients to keep an electronic copy of their pets medical records. Ideally they would be on an easily transported USB “key” (or thumb drive). Also, for my local clients, fantastic 24 hour, 7 day a week emergency care is available at the Cornell University Veterinary Specialists (CUVS) in Stamford, CT. 203-595-2777–Dr. Jeff
