Cat Vaccination

We routinely vaccinate cats against cat flu caused by Feline Herpes Virus (FHV) and Feline Calicivirus (FVC), Infectious enteritis caused by Feline Parvovirus (FPV) and Leukaemia caused by Feline Leukaemia Virus (FeLV).

After the initial kitten course at 9-13 weeks old, the full vaccine is repeated a year later. Annual boosters are required to ensure immunity to cat flu (Feline Herpes and Calicivirus). The Infectious Enteritis and Leukaemia vaccine is repeated every 3 years.

During your cat’s vaccination appointment they will receive a thorough health check from the vet. Cats are good at hiding health problems and this check is very important particularly to assess changes in weight, heart problems and dental disease which can easily go undetected until they are quite severe.
