Our Approach to Kitten Care
Kittens change quickly, and their early months are crucial for building strong immunity, safe socialization, and healthy development. Our approach focuses on calm, gentle visits that help your kitten feel secure while giving you the tools you need to support them at home.
We take time during each appointment to monitor growth, address behavior questions, and create a care plan tailored to your kitten’s unique needs and lifestyle.

F.A.Q
When should my kitten have their first vet visit?
Most kittens should be seen within the first week of coming home so we can start vaccines, check for parasites, and establish a wellness plan.
How frequently do kittens need vaccines?
Generally every 3–4 weeks until around 16 weeks of age. We’ll recommend the exact schedule based on your kitten’s health and lifestyle.
What happens during a kitten exam?
We perform a full physical exam, assess growth and development, discuss nutrition, review behavior, and create a customized care plan.
Do kittens need parasite prevention?
Yes. Even indoor kittens are at risk of parasites. We provide safe, effective prevention options tailored to your home and environment.
