Companion animal care
Veterinary Care for Dogs and Cats in Amawbia and Awka
Dogs and cats depend on us to notice when something is wrong. A pet that stops eating, scratches constantly or seems unusually quiet may be telling you it needs attention, and many conditions are easier to manage when they are caught early.
At AVERA Veterinary Healthcare we examine your pet carefully, explain what we find in plain language and agree a sensible plan with you. That plan may be a vaccination schedule, a deworming routine, treatment for an illness or simply advice on feeding and care.

Why it matters
Why prevention matters for pets
Several serious diseases of dogs and cats can be prevented or made less likely through vaccination, parasite control and good hygiene. Some, such as rabies, also matter for human health, which is why responsible pet vaccination protects your household as well as your animal.
Routine checks give us a baseline for your pet, so changes are easier to spot. When illness does occur, early assessment usually means more treatment options.

Questions
Companion Animal Care: common questions
When should my puppy or kitten start vaccinations?
Young animals usually begin a course of vaccinations in their first months of life, but the right timing depends on the species, the animal's health and the vaccines involved. Contact us and we will recommend a schedule after assessing your pet.
How often should I deworm my dog or cat?
Deworming frequency depends on your pet's age, lifestyle and risk of exposure. Puppies and kittens generally need more frequent treatment than adults. We will advise a routine that suits your animal.
Do you vaccinate dogs against rabies?
Rabies vaccination is an important part of responsible dog ownership. Contact us to discuss rabies and other core vaccinations for your dog.
