When to Vaccinate Your Pet
Knowing when to vaccinate your pet is crucial for their health and well-being. For puppies and kittens, vaccinations should ideally start between six to eight weeks of age. These initial vaccinations are essential for building their immunity against common diseases. To ensure robust protection, a series of booster shots are administered at specific intervals, usually every three to four weeks, until they are around 16 weeks old.
