My cat & kittens were spayed and neutered last week. But out of the 6 of them, four have lost weight and the adult cat has a fever. They've all received rabies and feline distemper shots. Shoyld I get them the FeL shot next?

first of all they need to get better, if they lost weight and one had a fever maybe they are suffering from an infection, you need to get them to the vet and get them treated before you can get them vaccinated.
