I hope Junior feels better soon. My vet only recommended the distemper for Mama Kitty when she is due next year since she has FeVL...and, like your vet, wouldn't administer unless she was symptom free and doing well. My vet's take on this is that it would be horrible to have her fight off the

Thanks, Terrie. I hope your business trip is better than mine. I had to go out of town for a week and Wednesday I got a very severe form of food poisoning. I thought I would die. I've lost 12lbs in 3 days. I'm glad to say that I think I will live now...but I'm not completely convinced.

OT: 1 year vs. 3 year vaccines - is this true?

I have heard many time from different vets that 1 year rabies vaccines is the same thing as 3 year vaccines in terms of the content - therefore it's safer to give 3 year vaccines - is this true?

I did not know how bad his eye hurt until he got home. The vet mentioned that aspirin was good for the inflammation. I am not sure why he did not just tell me to give him some. Although I do not like giving a cat aspirin I did give him about 1/3 of a baby aspirin last night. Best as I can tell he
