Feline vaccination protocols have saved countless cats from suffering diseases such as panleukopenia, herpesvirus, calicivirus (FVRCP), and rabies. For animals, just as for humans, vaccinations are the single most effective method for the prevention of infectious disease. It is counterintuitive, however, that an action which causes fear and pain is done out of concern and love. Don't worry, Tiger, in a few minutes you'll be back to your long life of milk, yarn, and long naps on sun-drenched windowsills.
