RE: Update time: Peanut and Yoda go to the vet

in #cats5 years ago

What is he pretty and sweet !!!!!!
At the expense of vaccinations.
I searched and read a lot about the benefits and harms of vaccines.
So, one professor wrote that a kitten should be vaccinated at the age of 6 months (not earlier!)
Before up to six months of age, the kitten has immunity from mom.
Then at 6 months they are vaccinated and only once until the end of life.
What veterinarians say about the frequency of vaccinations and at what age, this is all a business that ultimately harms the health of the animal.
That is, instead of helping, these vaccinations weaken the cat's body.
I don’t know if you will agree with this, but try to look for information.
My observations of my cats, which I have for 15 years:
the cats I vaccinated live less ...
the cats that I did only 1 time are alive and have never been sick for 15 and 11 years !!!!!
They are alive and now.

Sort:  

Vaccination is definitely something to be informed about, I have read all the debates about vaccinations and I am not in favour of yearly vaccination, nor do I do it but I also think that it is a mistake not to vaccinate at all. I have seen animals die terribly because they weren't vaccinated and rabies is always a risk in my country. As far as I know, kitten immunity from mom only lasts for a short time, not six months, and viruses like panleukopenia are deadly to kittens.
I give kitten shots and boosters and again after 1 year and then I don't vaccinate again because there is risk of cancer at the injection site.

There is no rabies in Cyprus.
But, when I flew with cats to exhibitions, I definitely did this vaccine (and others), as in other countries there is rabies.
It also plays a role that my cats live only in the apartment, do not walk on the street.
I bought cats only with the results of tests for various diseases.
After all, I was engaged in breeding cats, so cats must be healthy.

Yes, of course. I wish all breeders were so responsible. My cats enjoy outside too much, I couldn't keep them inside, they get very pissed off, especially Yoda. He will jump out of windows, or rattle them all night if he can't go outside.

Thank you so much for the curation!
