Practise describing symptoms and asking a vet about care.

The idea

Describe what has changed and when it started; ask How often should I…? for care instructions.

Examples

  • My cat has not eaten since yesterday.
  • My dog is limping on one back leg.
  • The rabbit started coughing this morning.
  • How often should I give the medicine?
  • Should the bird rest in a quiet place?
  • When should we return for a check-up?

Watch out

Do not confuse since with a duration: give a starting point after it.
