Annual vaccination seems to have become a routine

The routine in the minds of shit shoveling officials,

Vaccines are very important to humans,

Of course, the same applies to furry children~

Subsequently, many parents are worried that vaccines will cause adverse reactions to their pets.

Today I will give you some popular science:

What adverse reactions will the vaccine produce? Are there risks?

Do cats need to be vaccinated against rabies?

Does the vaccine need to be re-injected every year?

Before talking about these issues, let’s first understand them

What exactly is a vaccine?

​In fact, in the previous tweet,

We have mentioned it before,

Let’s review it again.

Vaccines are pathogenic microorganisms and their metabolites

Made by artificial means

Immune preparations that can prevent infectious diseases.

This is also an important protection method to prevent TA from contracting infectious diseases.

In other words, this advance preparation,

It can allow the antibodies in TA's own body to fight against pathogens.

There are two main types of vaccines:

Weakened live vaccine (low toxicity) - Intervet

Inactivated vaccine—Miao Sanduo.

MLV vaccines contain attenuated toxicity,

It can allow cats and dogs to produce antibodies while not being infected.

The most common ones are the five-part combination for dogs and the three-part combination for cats;

Inactivated vaccine, as the name suggests, kills all the viruses.

There will be no chance of infection,

The most common ones are rabies vaccine, influenza vaccine, etc.

The adverse reactions of this type of vaccine,

Commonly seen when inactivated vaccines containing immune adjuvants are injected.

(Rabies vaccine, influenza vaccine, etc.)

These bulges come in different sizes,

Usually around 1-3cm;

At the same time, it may be accompanied by melanin precipitation or hair loss.

Usually it gradually disappears in 2 to 6 weeks.

​ But it may exist for several years.

​If after vaccination,

Cats and dogs don’t have anyadverse reactions,

And the bulge has not changed,

Then you don’t have to worry too much,

You can wait for the bulge to subside on its own.

But if the swelling is still increasing after one month,

At the same time, it is accompanied by physical discomfort.

Then it is very likely to deteriorate into fibrosarcoma!

Note: Sarcomas are generally caused by injection of rabies vaccine.

And dogs will not have such problems.

At this time, you must be taken to the hospital for examination and treatment.

The solution for sarcoma is generally removal,

If it is not handled in time,

It may cause irreparable consequences.

Foreign preventive measures for such situations,

Just give the injection to avoid hitting the neck and back.

Try to choose a position close to the tip of the limb,

Even if such a situation occurs,

You can also "ampute your limbs to save your life" at a critical moment.

Cat Sanlian: below the elbow joint of the right front leg;

Rabies: right hind leg below knee joint;

Feline leukemia: below the knee joint of the left hind leg;

Allergic reactions usually occur

Within a few hours after vaccination,

Symptoms include drooling, rapid heartbeat, vomiting,

In severe cases, diarrhea, facial swelling, epilepsy, shock, etc. may occur.

​If there is any abnormality,

Be sure to seek medical attention and receive treatment as soon as possible.

Within one month after injection of attenuated live vaccine

Such situations may occur,

(Such as dog five-partner and cat three-partner, etc.)

Lameness is usually caused by muscle pain.

Affected kittens and puppies may be accompanied

Fever, lethargy, loss of appetite, refusal to walk, etc.

It usually takes about 2 days to recover.

If the situation is serious, timely medical treatment is required.

After injecting the attenuated vaccine,

Loss of appetite may occur.

No energy, mild fever and other symptoms,

Symptoms occur 1-2 days after injection.

​Generally speaking, this phenomenon is relatively normal.

​It will improve within 2-3 days,

If you still have a loss of appetite after a few days,

You still need to go to the hospital for a checkup.

During the injection, the needle punctured the blood vessel and an embolism occurred.

Hair follicles suffer from insufficient blood supply for a long time.

Resulting in hair loss at the injection site,

Parents don’t have to worry~

Do vaccines need to be re-administered every year?

Is this really healthy for the master?

In fact, this is a question in the minds of many parents.

After all, we Twolegs were all in childhood

After being vaccinated, adults will no longer need to take additional vaccinations.

Why do cats and dogs need it?

First of all, the effective period of the vaccine is much longer than one year.

There is no scientific proof that vaccination should be given every year.

Secondly, the amount of vaccine injection

It is not adjusted to the size of the cat.

No matter how old your dog/cat is,

No matter how many kilograms, the amount of vaccine injection is the same,

This doesn’t make sense from a logical level,

Not to mention that such a dose of vaccine is given every year,

What a heavy burden it places on the master's own immune system.

Finally, excessive vaccination may cause

There are many cases of serious health problems.

​Especially in terms of the immune system,

These include allergies, epilepsy, anemia, and cancer.

Because there are relevant regulations and restrictions,

Dogs need to be vaccinated every year before they can apply for a dog license.

So taking cats as an example, let’s take a look at the authoritative experts

Recommendations for vaccination

They come from:

The founder of the public welfare animal blood bank,

Director of the Blood Research Laboratory, Wadsworth Research Center,

Also at the New York State Human Blood Transfusion Council

Dr. Jean Dodds, executive director;

The above vaccines are only for domestic cats.

As for the vaccination of stray cats,

It is best to undergo short-term observation and isolation

After confirming that there are no health risks,

It is recommended to take one shot of the core vaccine.

Details can be found at:

Does your pet have too many vaccinations?

​When the cat meets the following conditions,

We can choose whether to inject:

So if the above two requirements can be met,

Rabies vaccination is not required.

Note: Air consignment, train consignment, etc. have clear regulations

Exceptions are required for rabies vaccination.

​Finally, let’s expand on a relatively easy problem,

Can I give my cat or dog a bath after the injection?

Because their immunity will decline during this week,

It will slowly rise after a few days,

If you come into contact with pathogenic bacteria at this time,

They will be more likely to get sick.

Okay, having said that, what do you think about

You should know almost all the little questions about vaccines,

Although raising cats and dogs is not an easy matter,

But I believe that in this process of mutual growth and learning,

We will definitely become the best parents~
