There are few things in the world as cute as a kitten, and for cat owners, those kittens and cats can mean the world. That is also why pet owners devote their time and even finances to care for their adorable furry feline friends. For cat owners and their pets, that is the good news. The bad news is, sometimes, love hurts, and for cats and their owners, that is the case with vaccinations. If you are looking for a veterinarian in Livonia to help with your immunization and vaccination needs, our pet-friendly and professional veterinarians at Unleashed Pet Care can help.

Vaccinations for Your Cat and Kitten

There are two classes of vaccinations for cats. They are classified as either core vaccines or non-core vaccines. Core vaccines are the vaccines that provide protection against the most common threats. Non-core vaccines are vaccines that protect against diseases and viruses your cat may be at a higher risk of getting. Your local vet will assess various factors, such as any travel you do with your cat, or if your cat is put up for boarding during trips or vacations, for example.

The core vaccines for cats include:

   - FHV-1

   - FCV

   - FPV

   - Rabies

Some of the non-core vaccinations include:

   - FeLV

   - Chlamydia felis

   - Bordetella

Yes, shots hurt, but it is a small price to pay for a lifetime of health and happiness, and that is what vaccines are really all about. Yes, caring for our pets is a top priority, and vaccinations should be near or at the top of the list for every pet owner.
