Whether you’re adopting a new kitten or caring for an adult cat, we’ll provide high-quality, customized care to protect them from the biggest threats.

Immunodeficiency affects a cat’s immune system and can lead to chronic infections and other health issues.
The FIV vaccine is recommended for cats at high risk of exposure, such as those that roam outdoors or are in multi-cat households with FIV-positive cats.
FIP is a fatal disease caused by a mutated coronavirus. It primarily affects young cats and those living in multi-cat environments.
Your veterinarian can help determine if this vaccine is appropriate for your cat.
FeLV is a virus that can suppress the immune system and lead to cancer and other serious illnesses.
The FeLV vaccine is recommended for kittens and cats that spend time outdoors or are in close contact with other cats, as the virus is spread through close contact.
This vaccine protects against a bacterial infection that primarily causes conjunctivitis and respiratory problems.
It is recommended for cats in multi-cat environments or shelters where the risk of transmission is higher.
Bordetella bronchiseptica is a bacteria that can cause respiratory infections.
It is recommended especially for cats that are housed in groups, such as in boarding facilities or shelters.
Proper care starts right from the beginning for your newest addition. For kittens, we recommend the following vaccination schedule to enhance protection while avoiding potential over-vaccination reactions.
1st round of vaccines, 8-9 weeks old: First FVRCP and FeLV boosters
2nd round of vaccines, 11-12 weeks old: Second FVRCP booster and annual FeLV booster
3rd (final) round of vaccines, 13-15 weeks old: Annual FVRCP vaccine and rabies vaccine
When it comes to protecting your cat’s long-term health, vaccinations are one of the most cost-effective measures you can take.
