Is your emergency about an exotic pet? Exotic pets are fragile and the general on-call vet is not always equipped for them. Specialists: Cabinet Au Furet, Echichens (+41 21 811 55 11, emergencies by appointment); NACVet, Rossens FR (exotic-pet emergencies on Sundays: 0900 622 622) — all exotic-pet vets.
Numbers verified on 13 June 2026 on the official websites of the on-call services. The 0900 numbers are premium-rate (rate shown, charged by your operator) and are sometimes blocked by default on mobiles. If a number does not answer, call your usual practice.
