When a kitten is two months old, you can first give it internal and external deworming, then observe for a week. If the body shows no abnormal symptoms, it is ready for vaccination.

Cats are usually given the FVRCP feline triple vaccine, which protects against herpesvirus, panleukopenia, and calicivirus. The first round requires three shots spaced 21 to 28 days apart, and the rabies vaccine can be given together with the third shot.

After that, take the cat for one annual booster shot and one rabies shot each year to keep its antibody levels high enough.
