Deworming treatment is required before vaccination. If there are a large number of parasites in the body, a large amount of nutritional proteins in the cat's body will be consumed, and the body's immune response will fail, leading to immune failure. Therefore, deworming is required before vaccination. Kittens can be dewormed for the first time at the age of 8 weeks. If parasites are found to be expelled after deworming, perform internal deworming again after two weeks.

Precautions for cat vaccination and deworming:

1. First deworm the cat, make sure there is no abnormality in the cat’s body, and then vaccinate.

2. Generally speaking, cats need to be vaccinated against feline triplex (feline distemper virus, feline herpes virus and feline calicivirus) and rabies vaccine.

3. When injecting the vaccine, you need to make sure that the cat is in a healthy state and has no abnormal symptoms such as fever, cough, and diarrhea.

4. 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.

5. If the cat shows abnormal behavior after being vaccinated, take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time.
