Vaccinations for Cats

Usually a cat lives for 12 to 15 years at an average. Vaccines for cats are available comfortably since the mid of 1980’s. Cat’s vaccines are nothing but non-contiguous and harmless version of the viruses that cause the disease. These vaccines stimulate the cat’s disease fighting ability i.e. its immune system which in turn destroys the distemper causing viruses. No medicine can terminate viruses. Only antibiotics are given to the cats for controlling the infections but they tend to weaken the cat. Felines should be kept up to date with their distemper combination and rabies vaccines. Vaccines should be given in proper intervals as advised by the vet.
