Understanding Cat Vaccinations

Cat vaccinations work by stimulating the immune system to recognize and defend against specific disease-causing agents, known as pathogens. When a vaccinated cat encounters these pathogens in the future, the immune system is primed to mount a swift and effective defense, preventing the development of the disease.

Common Diseases Targeted by Cat Vaccinations

1.            Feline Distemper (Panleukopenia)

o             Vaccination is essential for preventing the spread of this deadly disease.

2.            Rabies
