Why Bionika Leads Pet Vaccination in Tbilisi
Our protocols follow World Small Animal Veterinary Association standards to ensure every vaccine is administered safely and on time. Each visit begins with a physical exam, temperature check, and weight review so we can adapt dosages and choose the right combination of pet vaccines in Georgia for your lifestyle.

Preparing for Your Appointment
Feed a light meal two hours before your visit, pack previous vaccine cards, and bring a favourite treat to keep the experience positive. If your pet has ever reacted to a vaccine, inform the doctor ahead of time so we can adjust protocols.
For pets travelling soon, schedule the rabies vaccine at least 21 days before departure. Certain destinations in the EU and UK require a rabies titre test, which our laboratory arranges within Georgia.
Aftercare & Safety Monitoring
Most pets return to normal play within a few hours. Offer fresh water, limit strenuous exercise for the rest of the day, and monitor the injection site for mild warmth or swelling.
Contact our team immediately if you notice any of the following warning signs:
- Facial swelling, hives, or persistent itching
- Repeated vomiting, diarrhoea, or collapse
- Breathing difficulty or wheezing sounds
- Lethargy lasting longer than 24 hours
An on-call veterinarian remains available for urgent guidance after every vaccination so you are never left without support.

Vaccination FAQs
Can indoor pets skip vaccines?
Yes, indoor pets still need protection. Viruses such as panleukopenia and rabies can enter apartments on shoes or through escaped insects. Core vaccines remain essential for lifelong immunity.
What if my pet had a vaccine reaction before?
Inform us before the appointment. We will adjust protocols, administer antihistamines if needed, and monitor your pet longer after the injection.
Do you update international pet passports?
Yes. Each entry is completed with stamp, signature, batch number, and multilingual notes that comply with EU border control.
