Pet Vaccinations at Thompsonville Veterinary Clinic in Thompsonville, IL

Vaccines play a vital role in safeguarding your pet against preventable illnesses that can pose serious health risks. Our dog and cat vaccine clinic in Thompsonville, IL, offers tailored vaccination plans to meet the needs of pets at every life stage.

Why Are Pet Vaccinations Important?

Vaccinations are a critical component of preventive care for your pet . They protect against highly contagious and potentially life-threatening diseases, such as rabies, parvovirus, and distemper. By vaccinating your pet, you not only safeguard their health but also contribute to the overall well-being of the community by reducing the spread of these illnesses.

Recommended Puppy & Kitten Vaccinations

Puppy and kitten vaccinations are essential to building your pet’s immunity during their early months of life. Young animals are particularly vulnerable to infectious diseases due to their immature immune systems. Our veterinarian follows a carefully structured schedule to ensure your pet receives the necessary protection at the right time.

Core Vaccines

Protect against widespread and severe diseases like parvovirus, distemper, and rabies.

Non-Core Vaccines

Recommended based on your puppy or kitten’s lifestyle, including vaccines for Bordetella (kennel cough) and Lyme disease.

Boosters

Administered at appropriate intervals to maintain immunity.

When Should You Schedule Vaccinations?

Timing is essential when it comes to vaccinations. Puppies and kittens typically begin their vaccination schedule between six to eight weeks of age, with booster shots every few weeks until they are 16 weeks old. Adult dogs and cats should have annual check-ups to determine if additional vaccines or boosters are needed. If your pet is new to your family or their vaccination history is unknown, we recommend a visit to our vaccine clinic to create a personalized plan.

As your pet grows, their vaccination needs may change. Our clinic provides individualized vaccination plans to ensure continued protection against preventable diseases. During annual wellness visits, we assess your pet’s health and environment to determine if additional or updated vaccines are necessary.
