貓貓的預防醫學
我們建議您的貓貓接種疫苗和做以下的預防措施,以增強⾝體抵抗⼒。
絕育
基於貓貓的健康,絕育是⾮常重要。我們建議6個⽉或以上的貓貓接受絕育⼿
術。
發情中的雌性貓貓可能會⻑期處於發情狀態,直到交配或絕育為⽌;⽽雄性的貓貓成年後,會開始在不同地⽅留下⾃⼰的尿液及氣味,作為⾃⼰領域的標記。絕育可以減少這些問題,也可以降低懷孕、前列腺、睾丸、⼦宮和乳腺疾病(包括癌症)的⾵險。
如要預約有關服務,請與我們聯絡。
F3 預防疫苗
可預防貓⽩⾎球減少症、貓卡他性病毒和貓⿐氣管炎。
所有貓貓可以在8週齡開始接種預防疫苗、同時在12和16週齡注射加強
劑,之後每年⼀次。
預防跳蚤和⽜蜱
會到戶外或容易有⽪膚問題以及跳蚤問題的貓貓都應定期預防跳蚤。
可⽤每⽉⼀次的滴頸劑 Frontline Plus或 Revolution Spot-On滴劑主⼈亦可選擇有效3個⽉的
BravectoSpot-On滴劑
杜蟲
腸蟲包括蛔蟲、鉤蟲和絛蟲。
幼貓應每⽉杜蟲⼀次,直到六個⽉⼤。
成貓應每3-6個⽉杜蟲⼀次。 主⼈可使⽤MILBEMAX杜蟲⼝服藥。
如果餵藥有困難的話,主⼈可選⽤滴頸劑產品(PROFENDER)。

General
Preventative Medicine for Cats
The following
vaccinations and preventatives are recommended to keep your pet protected
Desexing
Recommended for
all cats
Desexing your cat
is very important for both health and behavioural reasons
Female cats who
come into heat will stay in heat until they are either mated or spayed. Female
cats in heat may howl and become very affectionate. Male cats may start urine
marking or spraying as they reach sexual maturity.
Neutering reduces
these behaviours and also reduce risks of prostate, testicular, uterine and
mammary gland diseases including cancers as your cat gets older.
Regardless of
gender, your cat can reproduce at around 6 months old and so we recommend
desexing around 6 months old.
Please contact us
if would like to make an appointment.

panleukopaenia, rhinotracheitis and calicivirus.
