Protect your pet with vaccines

(Continued)

Cats

Rabies (Your kitten will receive its first vaccination at three or four months old. Check with your vet to see how often it needs booster shots: It's usually every one to three years, depending on the vaccine's manufacturer and the animal's vaccine history.)

Panleukopenia (feline distemper)

Calicivirus

Rhinotracheitis (feline herpes)

Optional shots:

Feline Leukemia Virus (This virus is spread through bites, bodily fluids and mother-to-kitten contact. Consider vaccinating your pet if it spends a lot of time outside, at the kennel or the groomer, where it might be around infected cats.)

Chlamydia (This disease is spread through the respiratory system. The vaccine won't entirely protect from infection, but your cat might have less severe symptoms if it does get the disease.)
