More information about these canine diseases

KITTENS: These little ones are like babies. Likewise, their immune systems are in an early developmental stage and are not ready to fight off disease. Lucky for them, their mother has passed on disease-fighting antibodies. The problem is these same maternal antibodies interfere with vaccinations. That's why we need to give a series of vaccinations to your kitten. As the mother's antibodies in the kitten drop off, the antibodies stimulated by vaccines take over to protect the kitten against disease. By the time the initial series of vaccinations is completed, all you'll have to worry about is what mischief your kitten will get into next.

ADULT CATS: once protection has been established in a cat, booster vaccinations are recommended to maintain protection against diseases. For most vaccines, boosters are administered annually. Your veterinarian will make the appropriate recommendations for your individual cat.

ANNUAL VISITS: Vaccinations are certainly important reasons to visit us each year, but they aren't the only reasons. Routine physical checkups by your veterinarian are essential in evaluating the health and condition of your pet. And that's key to the longterm health and wellbeing of a very dear companion.

YOUR ROLE: Even with an effective vaccination program, your cat won't be protected against every infectious disease. Common-sense strategies can help. Keep your cat from coming in contact with animals that are known to be sick. And be sure to let your veterinarian know of any significant change in your cat's habits, health or condition. Remember, your cat is counting on you.
