I got an 8 week old Siamese kitten that had her first round of shots from my vet. Due to his outrageous fees on vaccinations and his banter about people self vaccinating their animals dont know what they are getting and most of the vaccines we get online does not work well and I would be putting my kitten at risk. I thought time for me to find another vet and I do have some pre-vet courses in college to understand the risks of vaccine your own animals and never I had any problems or death resulting from me giving vaccines on all my animals. At least my vet courses didnt go to waste either!
I have a hard time finding a vaccine for the second and third rounds for distemper, rhino, calici, chlamydia combo vaccinations and leukemia vaccines in SINGLE DOSE vaccinations. My favorite supplier the Omaha Vaccine company no longer have the four in way shot in single dose, most of the suppliers have it in 25 to 50 doses. I have only one cat and need about three doses is all I may need for the kittens first year. I am questioning about the feline infectious peritonitis vaccinations since there are still guessing whether or not to have it vaccinated.
I never had my strictly indoor cats with rabies and never had any problems either but out of four vets, one said if the cat is strictly indoors, never go out for exposure of other animals, then rabies is not required. However our city has passed an ordiance that all pets must be vaccinated for rabies. Sigh! Now wondered if that would be really necessary.
One vet will charge microchip insertion with anesthesia??????? I never have heard to put the cat under ane for that kind of ID....whats up with that?
I would like to get my kitten spayed as soon as possible but must be over two pounds??? while others say must be around four to five months of age. I have seen eight week old kittens being spayed or neutered at the vets office for adoption purposes while the same vet tells me that I can not spay my cat until she is four months old. SAME vet that did the surgery on the adoption pets!!!! Talk about forked tongue!
We are going to be heading out next week to scout the best price for low income folks like us for spay programs but nothing found yet in the papers.
Any suppliers that carry single dose, please provide link and do you have success with it? I hope the vets dont think we are taking their business away but sometimes some of us like to do it ourselves even the risk is the same for both of us. Save money too!
I love those vets ripping us all off LOL! I told my vet what I think of this and he didnt like it and finally said, its your decision but its the money that will cost you if something happens to your pet. Well same for him if he ran into problems too! Lawsuits are not as common as human MD's do run against.
