Kitten Vaccinations

Schedule a checkup to get your feline friend the vaccines they need for a healthy life.

Kittens are vaccinated once every three to four weeks until they reach 16 weeks of age. However, often to avoid overvaccination, most veterinarians will recommend starting the vaccine process at 8 weeks of age, followed by boosters at 12 weeks and 16 weeks. Rabies is the other core kitten vaccination.
