Cat Vaccines

Vaccines and Routine Care

A guide to understanding your cat's complex issues.

Elaine Wexler-Mitchell, D.V.M.

Vaccinations are another part of your cats routine health care, and your veterinarian should be your partner in determining how to provide regular maintenance for your cat. As we learn more about the feline immune system and how it responds to vaccination, it becomes necessary for veterinarians and owners to work together even more closely.

Question for a vet: My cat has been seriously bothered with nose running, sneezing, etc. since I got him at (his) age of 5 years. He's under constant care of a wonderful vet. Recently, she gave him a cortizone shot and told us it would not affect his stomach. He vomited last night and stays hungry. Drinks a lot. Does cortizone bother a cat's stomach as it does a human's?

i believe that cats need to have their shots when the doctors say it needs to, to prevent disease.

I have talked with my own vet regarding vacinations. She had told me since there is so much controversy and I keep my kitties indoors, that I could get the upper respitory each year and the rest when they receive their rabies every three years.
