Cat Vaccines & Feline Preventative Care

Vaccinating a cat isn't just a kitten-year formality — it's ongoing protection that matters whether your cat lounges indoors or roams the property. Valley Vet's Cat Vaccines collection covers both core and non-core vaccines, the same way our founding veterinarians would have handled it in clinic: with a clear plan and products you can trust.

Core and Non-Core Cat Vaccines

Core vaccines — rabies, FVRCP, and distemper protection — are recommended for essentially every cat regardless of lifestyle. Non-core vaccines, including FeLV and other lifestyle-based options, depend more on whether your cat goes outdoors or lives in a multi-cat household.

A few specific products in the collection:

  • TruFel HCP, a modified live virus vaccine, protects healthy cats 8 weeks and older against feline rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, and panleukopenia. Two doses, three to four weeks apart, with the final dose given no earlier than 16 weeks of age.
  • TruFel HC2PCh, a killed virus vaccine for cats 8 to 10 weeks and older, protects against panleukopenia, calicivirus (including the hemorrhagic VS-FCV strain), rhinotracheitis, and chlamydia. Safe for pregnant queens.
  • A killed virus FeLV vaccine protects against feline leukemia in cats 10 weeks and older, with a repeat dose 3 to 4 weeks later and annual revaccination recommended.

Building Out a Kitten Vaccination Schedule

Kittens typically start their core series around 6 to 8 weeks, with follow-up rounds at 10 to 12 weeks and 14 to 16 weeks before moving onto an annual booster schedule. Sticking to that timeline matters — maternal antibodies can interfere with early doses, which is part of why the multi-round schedule exists in the first place. For everything else your cat needs between vet visits, take a look at our comprehensive cat supplies collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vaccines do indoor cats need? 

Indoor cats still need the core vaccines — rabies, FVRCP, and distemper protection — since exposure can happen even without outdoor access, through open doors, other pets, or visiting animals.

How often are boosters required? 

Most cat vaccines call for annual revaccination after the initial kitten series, though your vet may adjust the schedule based on lifestyle and risk factors.

Can cat vaccines be administered at home? 

Many of our feline vaccinations are designed for at-home administration, though we always recommend consulting your veterinarian on revaccination timing and any cat with an unusual health history.
