FELINE (CATS) VACCINE SCHEDULE:

The FVRCP vaccine is a essential "core" vaccine for cats, protecting against three highly contagious and potentially fatal diseases: Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FHV-1), Calicivirus (FCV), and Panleukopenia (FPL/distemper). It is recommended for all cats, regardless of whether they live indoors or outdoors. Vaccination typically starts at 6–8 weeks, with boosters in adulthood every three years. [1, 2, 3, 4]

 

Diseases Protected Against

  • Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FHV-1): A herpesvirus causing severe upper respiratory infections, responsible for 80-90% of such infections in cats.

  • Calicivirus (FCV): Affects the upper respiratory tract and oral cavity, often leading to mouth ulcers.

  • Panleukopenia (FPL): Also known as feline distemper, this virus is often fatal, especially in kittens, attacking the immune system and gastrointestinal tract.

​

Vaccination Schedule

  • Kittens: Start at 6–8 weeks old, with boosters every 3–4 weeks until 16–20 weeks of age.

  • Adults: A booster is required one year after the final kitten shot, and then every 3 years for life.

Canine (dog)

vaccine schedule

DHPP

DHPP is a canine vaccine that prevents distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza, and two types of adenovirus (hepatitis). Dogs should receive the DHPP vaccine at 7, 10, and 13 weeks, (then at 16 weeks if puppy lives outside with multiple dogs or in public) one year later after puppy series above, and then 1 to 3 years after that.

RABIES

Rabies can be given at 4 months or up to one year.  Regardless of the age of the animal at primary immunization, a second rabies vaccination should be given one year later, and the three-year booster schedule followed thereafter.

ORAL BORDETELLA

Oral Bordetella (kennel cough) vaccines can typically be given to puppies as young as 6 to 8 weeks old. While often administered alongside initial puppy shots (DHPP), with 8–16 weeks being the most common timeframe. 

 

Key Details on Oral Bordetella Vaccination:

  • Initial Vaccination: Generally administered at 12+ weeks of age.

  • Protection Type: Oral, intranasal (nose spray), or injectable (SQ) forms are available to protect against Bordetella bronchiseptica. We administer Oral at our facility

  • Boosters: A booster is often recommended every 6 months if your dog is in public.

  • Effectiveness: These vaccines provide rapid immunity, often within 48-72 hours, and are generally effective even in the presence of maternal antibodies, making them ideal for younger puppies.

We provide surgical days at our facility 2 – 8 times per month.
However, we have staff to provide vaccines and microchip services 7 days per week.
