Wow! A new kitten! What fun! They’re cute and fluffy and playful and the last thing you want to do is make them unhappy by forcing them in a carrier to take them somewhere they are uncomfortable. Then once they are there, someone will poke, prod, and stick them with needles and make them mad! And you’re supposed to do this every 3 weeks for how long? That’s just mean, right?

Do they really need all of that? Doesn’t it just make them hate the vet’s office even more? Plus, didn’t the shelter/home that you got your kitten from say they’d already been vaccinated? They can’t possibly need more than that. Well…Actually, they do, and here’s why.
