Vaccinating your cat

Cat "Flu"  - This is a very common respiratory viral infection. It is very easily spread from cat to cat through air. It causes "flu-like" symptoms, i.e. sneezing, loss of appetite, runny eyes, blocked nose........ and can quickly lead to pneumonia and death if not readily treated. Cats that recover can become carriers spreading it to other cats and often suffering recurrent bouts of "flu" themselves.

Infectious enteritis - A disease similar to Parvovirus in dogs, i.e. vomiting and bloody diarrhoea. Often leasing to death despite vigorous treatment.

Feline Leukaemia (F.e.L.V.) - a cancer causing virus which has recently become widespread among the cat population. It is easily transmitted via saliva (bites and grooming) or any close contact. There is NO TREATMENT. Symptoms are variable depending on the organ affected. Diagnosis depends on blood and saliva tests.

The routine kitten vaccination is for "FLU" and "Enteritis". But with the increasing incidence of FeLV  we now advise vaccination for FeLV also. This will add to the expense of your cats vaccination course but it will protect your cat from this deadly, untreatable disease.
