Congrats on adding Lokee to your family! Vaccines start between 7-8 weeks of age. Deworming starts at 2 weeks. Neutering happens between 4-6 months of age. You will need a vet to treat Lokee for fleas because he is only 5 days old. Revolution can be used on young kittens but it needs careful dosing.
