Welcoming a new puppy or kitten into your home is an exciting and joyful experience. Along with cuddles and playtime, one of the most important responsibilities of a pet parent is ensuring your little companion receives the right vaccinations at the right time. Vaccines are not just about preventing illness—they are about giving your pet the foundation for a healthy, long, and happy life.

Why Vaccinations Matter

Just like children, young pets have developing immune systems that are not yet strong enough to fight off dangerous infections. Vaccines train their immune system to recognize and fight harmful viruses and bacteria before they cause serious illness.

Without timely vaccination, puppies and kittens are at risk of life-threatening diseases such as:

  • Parvovirus – a severe viral infection causing vomiting, bloody diarrhea, and dehydration, often fatal in unvaccinated puppies.
  • Distemper – affects the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems, with no cure.
  • Rabies – a deadly viral disease that also poses a serious risk to humans.
  • Feline Panleukopenia (Cat Parvo) – highly contagious and often fatal in kittens.
  • Feline Calicivirus & Herpesvirus – cause severe respiratory infections in cats.

Core Vaccines for Puppies & Kittens

For Puppies

  • DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus, Parainfluenza)
  • Anti-Rabies Vaccine
  • Optional: Kennel Cough & Leptospirosis (depending on lifestyle and exposure)

For Kittens

  • FVRCP (Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia)
  • Anti-Rabies Vaccine
  • Optional: Feline Leukemia Vaccine (for outdoor cats)

When to Start Vaccinations

  • Puppies: Start as early as 6–8 weeks of age, with booster shots every 3–4 weeks until 16 weeks.
  • Kittens: Start at 8–9 weeks of age, with boosters every 3–4 weeks until 16 weeks.
  • Annual Boosters: Essential to maintain immunity throughout life.

Beyond Protection – A Safer Community

Vaccinating your pets not only protects them but also helps prevent the spread of diseases to other pets and humans. In a city like Hyderabad, where pets live in close contact with families and street animals, vaccination is critical to keeping everyone safe.
