Pet's info: Cat | Bengal | Male | unneutered | 3 months and 21 days old | 3 lbs
My kitten was born on 1/29/17. He had his first shot with the breeder on 4/21/17, but he is also a rescue. I got him because he has Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome so they did not expect him to live. But to my happiness he is thriving. I gave him his next shot myself of, Panleukopenia Vaccine today, 5/20/17. What other immunizations and when does he need them?

He needs one more FVRCP vaccine 3-4 weeks from 5/20/17. He also needs a 1 Rabies vaccine through your vet since this is required by the state. If he is going to be allowed outside, I would also recommend 2 rounds of Feline Leukemia vaccine. Wow, he is a lucky kitty. I sure hope Archer continues to thrive and go on to live a long, happy and healthy life. Best wishes.

For prices I suggest you check the VETCO website. This is the company that provides vaccines inside Petco stores. ( https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/clinic-locations-and-schedules/ ) He should have started his vaccines at 2 months of age so he is way behind on his vaccines. He will need FVRCP and Rabies now and then an FVRCP booster in 3- 4 weeks. If he will be going outdoors then he will also need a FeLV vaccine. It is best to go to the VETCO clinic and consult with the vet on duty. They can give you the best information after getting all the history from you. He will also need to be dewormed. You can also take Leo to full service vet clinic in your area if you prefer that. Best wishes.
