The earliest age of vaccination is set by the government (in the US) and the vaccination companies, and they list 12 weeks as the earliest a kitten can be vaccinated for Rabies. If we give it earlier than 12 weeks, that cat would not be considered legally vaccinated. I hope that was helpful! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
