Overview
Vaccinating your cat is one of the best ways to protect them from serious and potentially life-threatening diseases. These illnesses — like feline parvovirus, feline herpesvirus, and feline leukaemia virus — can cause lasting health issues and can sometimes be fatal.
Vaccines also help prevent the spread of disease within the broader cat population. This protection is especially helpful in areas with lots of cats.
