Re: [Felvtalk] messages - And question for Margo

[Margo]

Hi Rachel,

                Many (probably most) Vets are very leery of stocking the three year PureVax. They don't think people will pay the price which is, indeed, three times the price of the one year. My Vet does carry it, I use the three year where allowed.

                Initially they had it on a trial basis, but to their surprise, their clients were willing to pay. It is a financial hit, at about $65 for just rabies, and I'm in a not so wealthy area, but I guess some clients think it's worth it. They now carry both, as the first booster has to be with the one year or at least is only considered valid for one year.

                You might find that another clinic in your area carries it, and sometimes Vets will work together. Worth a phone call :)

HTH,

Margo

Yes, it’s been pretty quiet lately. Hopefully that means that members with FELV kitties are doing ok. My new kitty Josie is doing good. She loves cantaloupe and sits in the bathroom while I brush Daizy’s teeth and waits for her turn! I have so many pictures and videos she is cute as can be.

 

I actually had a question for Margo. I am getting the one year Purevax rabies for Josie in a month. He said they only have a one year version and I would have to continue to get it every year if I go that route, but their three year version is shown as available on their website… confused. I have searched the web but am not finding much info on anyone using it. I e-mailed the company to see if they could send me info on it for my vet. Margo do you give the Purevax yearly?

Haven’t seen anything from FeLV in ages – been on it for over a year – updated regularly – now what
