Hello! I rescued a 3weeks female kitten recently but do not have much information about cat. What kind of vaccination or surgery does she need to get right now and how much of each thing will cost? Thank you!

She will need to start her vaccination course at the age of 8 weeks, the second vac at the age of 11-12 weeks. this course of vaccination can cost between 60-100$. most cats get spayed at the age of 6 months, this is a simple surgical procedure that can cost between 80-150$.
