Which Cat Vaccines Are Absolutely Necessary

There are two primary vaccinations your indoor kitty will need to stay healthy throughout her life: the rabies vaccine and the combination vaccine FVRCP—this vaccine protects against Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (feline herpes), Panleukopenia virus (feline distemper) and Calicivirus.

What vaccines does my cat really need?

• Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus and Panleukopenia (FVRCP). Commonly called the “distemper” shot , this combination vaccine protects against three diseases: feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus and panleukopenia (sometimes called “feline distemper”).
• Rabies.

Can unvaccinated cats be around vaccinated cats?

Is it safe for my unvaccinated kitten to be around my other pets? The simple answer is no. Even if your other pets are vaccinated. This is because vaccinated animals can often be carriers of diseases without showing any symptoms, which they may then transmit to an unvaccinated pet.
