Mischief & Trouble is on a distinguished road
Vaccination Follow-up

Well we're just back from the vets and I have to say I'm really impressed with them. 1st appointment of the day and we were taken about 15 mins early so no sitting around waiting. Really nice friendly vet with a soothing voice which helped settle both Mishchief and Trouble so quickly.

A really through check of them both and confirmed both are def girls as I'd had my doubts that Mischief was possibly a boy. Both in fab condition,

I asked the question over how often to vaccinate and he was open that there is so much varying advice out there on it. He advised that if I intend to use a cattery they would most often specify the requirement to follow the manufacturers guidance. So there was no push from the vet to get it done annually. Also as I wasn't sure to go all out and get the full vaccination recommended for outdoor cats as I plan for mine to be indoor he explained the leuk vaccination could be done later though obviously I would have to pay higher amount for that alone would be about £16. which isn't a lot to pay at the time if I decide to let my kitty's out.

Discovered why my vets was so much cheaper than some for vaccinations, he explained the kittens 1st are subsidised, I don't know how many vets get that though, and boosters are more expensive. In total I was £34 for 2 kittens vaccinations, not bad at all I think.

Plus I came away with a nice little goodie bag for each kitten of a toy, little book with kitten info and 4 free food samples (not sure if I will use as not the food I'm currently using) but all good
