Pet First Aid by American Red Cross app review: easily provide the care your furry buddy needs
Introduction
What we have here is the premier resource for all things pertaining to the correct treatment and preventative care for your beloved pet, catering to both cats and dogs with loads of invaluable information available directly from your iPhone and iPad.
The best iPhone and iPad apps for pet ownersI’ve reviewed a few American Red Cross apps over the past year or so, and I’m always very much impressed with the comprehensive nature of pretty much everything they put out into the market, not to mention the professionalism with which their material is presented.
Once again they’ve done a splendid job of providing a rather niche resource, in this case it’s the care of kitties and doggies and a very useful app for pets. There’s a lot of very useful information in here, so this app receives a very strong recommendation from me.
Easily Handle Pet Emergencies
Pet First Aid by American Red Cross provides some very simple step-by-step instructions that are designed to guide you through various everyday issues and emergencies that you may find yourself in as the owner of a dog or cat.

I’ve seen entire apps dedicated to finding things like veterinarian practices and pet-friendly hotels, but this app has it all covered so you’ll be covered in any eventuality, plus you can even set vet appoints directly within the app while keeping the practice’s phone number available at all times.
