Kitten shots: When to bathe, combine vaccines, and deworming advice?

Question

I have a 73 days old Himalayan mixed Norwegian Forrest kitten who got his first feligen vaccine on 04/03/17. 1) Am I not supposed to bathe him till the next booster shot? 2) How many days shall I wait to bathe him after the booster shot? 3) Is ok for the kitten to get the booster feligen and the rabies vaccine on the same day? 4) Is it safe to use Vibrac's Albomar (Albendozole 25mg/ml) 0.5ml suspension for these kittens every month? Pet's info: Cat | Himalayan | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 14 days old

Hello. 1&2) Vaccines are injections that go under the skin, therefore bathing has no affect on them, so you can bathe whenever you want in relation to vaccines. Topical anti-flea medications or de-wormers often suggest you don't bathe for 72 hours after applying. 3) It is ok to get the booster feligen and the rabies the same day. 4) Amount of deworming will depend on Eiric Clawdius's weight, so I would recommend checking in with your vet about the amount of dewormer (Albendazole is a dewormer) and the best types of dewormers available for the worms in your area. You may want to pick a different product for monthly use. Good luck with your little man!
