Help finding vet on Sunday

My cat has been suffering from kidney failure since January. After 3 days on IV at the vet clinics I took him home on Friday night. But he is not doing well. He is not eating, still drinking water, very lethargic. I realized that there is only 1 thing left I can do for my cat, help him end this suffering. It’s time.
I am looking for a vet who will be willing to come to my home in Mississauga today. I would like to save my cat stress of going to an emergency clinic.
Does anyone know a vet who I can reach today?

Very sorry to hear this, you can try calling 416-360-7400, ask for a Dr. Ahmad Badri.

He is a mobile vet that travels in a car with alot of supplies. I think he is based in Scarborough so i dont know if he would come out, but he might be able to refer you to someone?

P.S. was this caused by old age?

I'm so sorry you're going through this almur It's never an easy decision to make. I hope you can find a vet that will come to the house.

I'm so sorry your pet is suffering (and we suffer along with them). I hope you are able to find someone soon.
