Information can mean the difference between life and death in a crisis, and thankfully, we live in the information age. Virtually any human knowledge can be acquired from the internet; all you need is a starting point. For pet-related crises, JiveMedia provides such a starting point with
Pet First Aid.
Pet First Aid is a mobile phone application that includes a digital encyclopedia of text, illustrations, and videos about dogs and cats. These are bundled with the program, so they can be used even without wireless access. They include solutions for all manner of problems, including bleeding, bee stings, fractures, burns, and other ailments. There's even advice for such techniques as muzzling a rabid dog.
Pet First Aid is available for $3.99 on iPhone and Android. The iPhone version can be found
here, and as of this writing has a 4-star average.
