New Kitten Helpful Information

FVRCP is a combination vaccination that is given to cats to protect against multiple viruses. FVRCP stands for Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Panleukopenia. These viruses are mainly transmitted by direct contact and fecal-oral transmission by playing sharing toys, water/food bowls, environment, etc with other cats. This vaccine is recommended to be administered to kittens every 3-4 weeks from the age of 8 weeks to 16 weeks in kittens. After the 16 week vaccination, the next recommended FVRCP vaccination is in 1 year. This is the recommended core vaccination for cats.
