Vaccines save lives! 🐾💉

Vaccination is one of the most important ways to protect your dog or cat from serious, potentially life-threatening diseases.

🐶 Core Vaccines for Dogs:

* Rabies
* DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis/Adenovirus, Parvovirus, Parainfluenza)
* Leptospirosis

🐱 Core Vaccines for Cats:

* Rabies
* FVRCP (Feline Herpesvirus, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia)
* FeLV (for kittens and at-risk adult cats)

📅 When Should Vaccinations Start?

* 6–8 weeks: First puppy and kitten vaccines
* Every 3–4 weeks: Boosters until at least 16 weeks of age
* 12–16 weeks: First Rabies vaccine, according to local regulations
* After the initial series: Some vaccines require annual boosters, while others are given every 3 years

Even indoor cats need protection! Vaccination schedules depend on your pet’s age, health, lifestyle, and vaccination history.

At American Veterinary Hospital of Simi Valley, we help create personalized vaccination plans to keep your furry family members healthy and protected.

WE ARE ALL STABLE! 😂🐾

But behind the scenes? It’s a whole different story!

Being a veterinary technician means wearing a hundred hats every single day.

Drawing blood, checking temperatures, placing IV catheters, assisting with surgeries, dental cleanings, taking X-rays, monitoring patients… and somehow finding time for cuddles, kisses, and emotional support. ❤️

Our vet techs are true multitasking superheroes!

And while we take care of our patients, we never forget how important it is to take care of each other, too.

We believe that a healthy, supportive team creates a calmer, more compassionate environment for every pet who walks through our doors.

Because when your furry family member is going through something stressful, they deserve more than medical attention. They deserve patience, comfort, and genuine love.

To our incredible veterinary team: thank you for everything you do, even the things nobody sees! 🐾

One exam can make a big difference in your pet’s health 🐾

Many health concerns, including dental problems, allergies, changes in vision or hearing, and other conditions, are much easier to address when caught early. Regular exams, preventive care, and vaccinations can help identify potential issues before they become bigger problems.

An annual exam can save you time, money, and most importantly, help protect your pet’s health for years to come. Prevention is always easier than dealing with a problem once it becomes serious.
