First of all, Gene is beyond adorable! To answer your question, no, you should not be worried about him receiving two FVRCP vaccines in a one month span. This vaccine is typically given every 3-4 weeks until at least 16 weeks of age to maximize the immune response, but sometimes circumstances result in an additional vaccine being administered. Not to worry - everything should be fine!
