Core Vaccinations
Vaccinations are vital in preventing common and potentially fatal diseases in pets. Without these vaccinations, cats and dogs are at risk of contracting and spreading serious illnesses, some of which can be harmful to humans too. At our 24-hour pet clinic, we emphasise the importance of regular vaccinations as a key aspect of preventive pet healthcare.
Our cat vaccination programme includes essential vaccines to protect against:
Cat Vaccinations
- Feline Panleukopenia (FPV): Also known as feline distemper, this highly contagious virus can be fatal, especially in kittens.
- Feline Calicivirus (FCV): A common respiratory infection in cats, causing mouth ulcers and pneumonia.
- Feline Rhinotracheitis Virus (FHV-1): A severe upper respiratory infection, often leading to chronic sniffling or corneal ulcers.

Frequently Asked Questions about Vaccinations for Cats and Dogs
How soon after vaccination can my pet socialise with other animals?
It’s recommended to wait until at least a week after the final vaccination in the initial series before allowing your pet to socialise with other animals. This period ensures their immune system has responded adequately to the vaccine.
Will my pet need booster vaccinations throughout their life?
Yes, booster vaccinations are crucial for maintaining immunity throughout your cat’s or dog’s life. The frequency of these boosters will depend on the specific vaccine and your pet’s individual health needs.
Can older cats and dogs be vaccinated for the first time?
Absolutely. Older cats and dogs can be vaccinated, although they may require an initial series of vaccinations followed by regular boosters. It’s important to consult with our geriatric veterinarians for a tailored vaccination plan.
Is there any preparation required before bringing my pet in for vaccination?
Generally, no specific preparation is needed. However, ensure your pet is in good health on the day of vaccination. If your pet is unwell, it’s best to reschedule the appointment.
How can I keep track of my pet's vaccination schedule?
At The Gentle Vet, we maintain detailed health records for all our patients. Our clinic will remind you when it’s time for your pet’s next vaccination. You can also keep a personal record to monitor their vaccination schedule.
