Greencross Vets Vaccinations and your feline friend
To safeguard your cat from fatal diseases, Greencross Vets urge routine vaccinations. A vaccination schedule is your pet’s best assurance against preventable disease.
Your Greencross Vet will tailor the best vaccination schedule to suit your pet. Below is a general guide of when your cat will require a vaccination.
Kittens – core vaccination schedule
- 6 to 8 weeks old – first vaccination
- 10 to 12 weeks old – second vaccination
- 14 to 16 weeks old – third vaccination
Adult cats – booster vaccinations:
- cats require booster vaccinations to ensure long-term immunity against the contagious diseases like Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV)
- if your cat is exposed to the outdoors, consider incorporating the FIV vaccine into your cat’s program (this can be given from 8 weeks of age)
Ongoing
Your Greencross Vet will tailor an ongoing vaccination program guided by your cat’s lifestyle and environment.
