How many months can a cat be vaccinated?
Cats should be vaccinated between 9 and 12 weeks old to help them become disease-resistant. There are two types of vaccinations for cats: routine and non-routine. Routine vaccines are suitable for all cats.
For conventional vaccines, the first injection can be given three months after the kitten is born, as long as the kitten is completely healthy. Thereafter, the vaccine will be injected once a year as a booster. In order to prevent the vaccine effect from expiring, it can be injected one month in advance in the next year.
Unconventional vaccines generally require one injection. It should also be noted that one injection of rabies vaccine is usually enough, and there is no need to give it again after the second year, but the premise is that the cat has been living indoors and has no chance to come into contact with the outside world.
What should be paid attention to when vaccinating cats:
1. Cats that are over two months old can only start getting vaccinated. Kittens less than two months old will have antibodies obtained from breast milk. It has not disappeared yet. If the vaccine is injected at this time, the vaccine and antibodies will react, which will make the injected vaccine lose its preventive effect.
2. During the vaccination period, owners should not take their cats out, and do not bathe their cats, otherwise the effectiveness of the vaccine may be affected.
3. After the cat is vaccinated, the cat should stay in the hospital for observation for 30 minutes. If there are no problems, the cat can leave.
