I take my cats for their "annual" wellness visit, and while they're there, I ask my vet to update any shots that need updating.. but I don't really understand what the shots are, what each one is for, and how long each shot is supposed to last.
Also regarding shots: when is it necessary for cats to have "booster" shots (a second round of shots- a few weeks after the first)? I thought that was just for kittens.
Other things I'm wanting to be certain that I am doing right for my cats (please correct if I'm wrong/ suggest the best brands, etc):
Best way to worm indoor cats
Flea maintenance (they get a monthly mild-soap bath, monthly flea medication (& flea spray on the other weeks), I vaccuum a lot.
I brush their teeth monthly w/ cat toothpaste (is this necessary? Or should I even do it weekly like the tube says?).
They get purified water & they're on diet Iams, but I want to switch to a raw meat diet like "Bravo."
Anything else? Any *kind* info will be appreciated.
Thanks.
