If my cat dosent go outside does she need 2 hve her injections ?
Answers:
Yes, not only does it keep her safe, it also keeps your family free from diseases.
Many people do not have their indoor pets vaccinated, but it is necessary to prevent the spread of disease.
This is a member of your family, treat it as you would a child. There is no guarantee she will never get outside/ in contact with other animals.. quite possibley sick ones - or a visitor that has been in contact with them, so it is better to be safe than sorry.
Best of Luck
my cat goes outside all the time and hasnt had then since he was born,he's now 19
did the boy in the bubble still get vaccinations?
yes and i tried that but you cat will go outside i tried keeping my new kitten inside but she still managed to go outside so i give up in the end its instinct to stay out, sorry but it is best to be safe than sorry dont you think
ABSOLUTELY If any one enters your home, who has been in contact with a sick animal, your cat is at risk for catching nasty little diseases
Chances are your cat will not catch anything if not vaccinated, however, if by chance you come across (unawares) an infected cat you could bring it home on you and thus infect it. Best be safe, for the cost of vaccinations, than sorry. If you cat gets really ill, can cost hundreds to treat. Or perhaps, it could die.
Yes, she should have her yearly vaccinations. Even if an animal doesn't go outside, proper animal care includes vaccinations.
Yes. They definatly need them.
yes!!!
Vaccinations have become an area of suspicion for many vets. I personally do not give any of my five cats shots as of about five years ago.
Rabies is usually mandated by law. You can refuse it if you choose, your vet might have to make a note of that in your cat's file if the law requires that.
Go to: www.littlebigcat.com and read Dr. Jean Hovfe's article, "Vaccinations". The articles are in alphabetical order.
Yes she does. Some feline diseases are airborne and unless YOU don't go outside, you might bring in something and your little kitty could catch it. Be safe and responsible. Vaccinate your animal friends.
She is less likely to get infections than a cat that goes outside, but it is true that you could bring an infection inside with you. For example, if you (not realising) stepped on some cat pee or whatever, and walked on the carpet, it could spread to her.
If you work out how much money and effort is involved in the annual injections for your cat, it isn't very much. Better safe than really really sorry.
One piece of good news for you ... if she does not go outside, she probably will never get fleas or tics!
yes she does. Visitors can bring infectious diseases with them, for example on their shoes, their clothes or even their hands if they've had contact with another animal.
u must try putting injections..this can be a gr8 trouble...!!!!
yes she still does
it is best to, you can discuss it with your vet to make an educated decision. our cats are indoor cats (though occationally I do take them out on a leash) and we deffinatly wanted our cats vaccinated and we decided that even before taking them out on a leash was ever a thought.
The first set as a kitten yes and the first year yes.
I had a cat that if we walked out the door with her she peed. When my daughter brought home a kitten I had to get her a booster. It took five vet techs and a sheet to get it in her. That was the second vet that asked me not to bring her back.
I do believe we over vaccinate. Ive seen the auto immune caused from vaccines.
yes
Yes, and worming and de-fleaing. Cat fleas spread tapeworm to your cat.
You can walk the viruses inside on your shoes, clothing and hands.
The diseases are preventable by vaccination, but mot curable if she gets one.
Well I have a strictly indoor cat that isn't really exposed to other humans or animals! so she has her kitten shots and I take her once a year for a physical and blood wrk and only get the rabies since its required for grooming (yes shes a spoiled one)
Yes of course she does, all manner of germs are walked in on shoes.
Of course she does; infections can be carried in by other people on clothing or shoes, and the cat may escape!! All cats need protection.
Yes, give her injections. My cat is an indoor cat but she gets her shots
