Kitten Health Plan
At the Animal Clinic of North Park, we strongly believe in preventative medicine.  We offer a vaccination program for your kitten that will provide the most effective disease protection available.
1st Visit (8 weeks old)
Comprehensive physical exam: Several disorders are relatively easy to treat if detected in the early stages.  These include dental disease, ear infections, tumors, eye disorders, heart disease, and respiratory disorders.  To ensure your pet's health, we recommend a wellness exam once every six months.

FeLV & FIV testing: A blood test is used to detect deadly feline leukemia and feline aids.
FVRCP #1: Feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, and panleukopenia (distemper).  A follow-up booster should be given when your pet is 12 weeks old.
Feline Bordetella #1: The feline version of the vaccine for “kennel cough.”  A follow-up booster should be given when your pet is 12 weeks old.
Fecal Test: Your pet's feces should be tested for internal parasites once a year.  Several types of internal parasites can affect your pet's health and, in some cases, the health of your family.
Advantage Flea Control: This medication kills 98-100% of fleas within the first 12 hours.  Each treatment lasts four weeks.

2nd Visit (12 weeks old)
FVRCP #2: Feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, and panleukopenia (distemper) booster
Feline Bordetella #2: This is the booster for the feline version of the vaccine for “kennel cough.”
FeLV #1: Feline leukemia.  A follow-up booster should be given when your pet is 16 weeks old.

3rd Visit (16 weeks old)
FeLV #2: Feline leukemia booster
FIP #1: Feline infectious peritonitis.  A follow-up booster should be given when your pet is 20 weeks old.
Rabies:  This vaccination is recommended for all cats that may go outdoors.  A follow-up booster is required in one year.

4th Visit (20 weeks old)
Comprehensive Physical Exam: The doctor will examine your pet to assure proper growth and development.  We'll also discuss behavioral patterns, demonstrate proper dental care, and discuss spaying/neutering your pet.

FIP #2: Feline infectious peritonitis booster
Spay/Neuter: This service is highly recommended for all pets not destined for breeding.  It can help reduce aggression and territory marking in males, and reduces the risk of fatal breast or prostate cancer.  Additionally, it helps reduce the rising population of pets in animal shelters and humane societies.
