What you need to know about feline vaccinations
FHV (Feline Herpesvirus)
Feline herpesvirus causes chronic upper respiratory infections in cats. Once contracted your cat will carry FHV for life, adding urgency to vaccination. Kittens should receive their first vaccinations at eight weeks followed by one to two boosters. Adult cats should be vaccinated every one to three years. Your vet can advise you on the best intervals for your cat.
FeLV (Feline Leukemia)
This vaccine isn’t a core vaccine but is recommended for cats who spend time outside. Feline leukemia is a viral infection spread through body fluids that kills most infected cats within three years of diagnosis. As it cannot be cured, immunization is your best safeguard. Your vet will be able to determine the best time and frequency for immunizing your cat.
Rabies
Rabies are core vaccines for cats and are legally required in Florida after four months of age. You can vaccinate your kitten as young as 8 to 12 weeks according to your vet’s recommendation. Depending on the vaccine given, rabies vaccine boosters are required yearly or every third year after the first two initial immunizations.
FVRCP (Feline Distemper)
FVRCP prevents feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, chlamydia, and panleukopenia. Kittens should receive their first vaccination between six and eight weeks old, with three boosters for each month following initial immunization. Your adult cat should receive a booster every year unless recommended otherwise by your vet.
