In an emergency situation I brought my dog in a panic - he was acting spicy and responsive - in a rush to get him there I had only brought my Amex card and was told they do not accept Amex and that I either 1) could be billed for the emergency visit but if anything happened while he was in their care they would not do anything for him or 2) I could take him back home and get another form if payment and bring him back. Instead I took my dog to VCA emergency who not only accept Amex but did not need me to make an possible choice under trying situations. Avoid them unless you know the payment rules up front and do not expect there to be any empathy if not.
