Welcome to Wellness Wednesday! Today, I took my cats to the vet for annual shots. It’s important for them to stay healthy too right?
They’re getting rabies shots as well as the combination Vaccine FVRCP for feline distemper. What is feline distemper? Well, it’s very contagious and can be fatal so we don’t want it!
Symptoms of feline distemper can range from mild to severe and may include the following:
- Lethargy.
- Depression.
- Vomiting.
- Diarrhea.
- Painful abdomen (when touched or may appear tense and distended without touching)
- Dehydration.
- Weight loss.
- Rough or unkempt hair coat.

The boys did really well – and on the way home, Gus got his first ever puppachino from Starbucks (and pretty much shut down the store with all the staff in the drive thru window looking at him!)
