Vaccination Programme:

Core feline vaccination

Every healthy cat should be vaccinated against 3 core feline diseases – feline panleucopaenia (or infectious enteritis), feline herpesvirus (rhinotrachitis) and feline calicivirus (both causes of “cat flu”). The devastating consequences of these diseases for a cat can easily be prevented by regular vaccination.

The cat flu viruses are very contagious and widespread. Vaccination against cat flu can be tailored to the individual’s needs.  This vaccine programme offers the flexibility of 3 yearly revaccination intervals using Nobivac Tricat Trio. It can be combined with targeted annual revaccination with Nobivac Ducat in interim years for those cats at higher risk of exposure to cat flu.

  • For a cat at higher risk of exposure – one that visits boarding catteries, has an indoor-outdoor lifestyle or is from a multi-cat household – annual vaccination is recommended. 
  • For a cat at lower risk of exposure – an indoor cat that doesn’t visit boarding catteries – 3 yearly vaccination is adequate.

For an initial vaccination: Two doses are required, at an interval of 3 to 4 weeks.

The first dose of vaccine is given from the age of 8-9 weeks and the second inoculation from the age of 12 weeks.

In the case of earlier vaccination where it is desirable or necessary, vaccination is appropriate from 6 weeks of age onwards but should be followed by the normal vaccination scheme at 8-9 and 12 weeks of age.

Only healthy cats should be vaccinated, and an adequate clinical examination should be made prior to inoculation.

Duration of immunity: The duration of immunity is 3 years for the FCV, FHV, and FPLV components, as confirmed by the challenge study.

While the duration of immunity is 1 year for the FCV and FVR components; 3 years for the FPLV component.

Overdoses / Side effects / Contraindications /Warnings:

Slight temporary swelling at the site of injection can be observed for one day. A slight temporary rise in rectal temperature (< 40 °C) may occur, while occasionally slight discomfort may be observed during the first day after vaccination.
