Animal Vaccinations
for Depew, Williamsville, Clarence, Cheektowaga, West Seneca, Orchard Park, NY & Beyond

Vaccines help prepare the body’s immune system to fight the invasion of disease-causing organisms. To keep your pet from catching any contagious diseases, it is vital to keep up with animal vaccinations and making sure they are also up-to-date. Even if your pet is mostly kept indoors, this is still important. The reason for this is because many contagious diseases are airborne, and your pet can be exposed through an open window or even if they happen to go outside for a short period of time. Our veterinary clinic can help determine a vaccination regime that will provide the safest and best protection for each individual animal. Unsure if your pet has any known allergies? At our animal clinic, our staff can perform allergy testing for pets to determine if they require special care or restrictions.

Factors to Consider for Each Vaccine

Before administrating a vaccine for an animal, your veterinarian will address and ask you a series of questions that pertain to your pet. By taking down this information prior to the pet vaccine, our veterinarians can get a better idea of the overall health of your pet, or decide if the specific vaccine is safe to be performed. The following factors may be asked: 

 

  • Age – Both kittens and puppies require different vaccines than adult pets would receive. 

 

 

  • Location – It is no surprise that different diseases are more prevalent in some locations than others. For instance, if you have a pet living in a region where Lyme disease is common, it is recommended for your pet to get vaccinated against Lyme disease.

 

 

  • Lifestyle – If you have an indoor cat, but might occasionally go outside, or if you might be an individual that brings stray cats inside the home, the feline leukemia vaccine is typically recommended. Animals who live in a shelter setting may require different vaccines, merely because they are exposed to many different things.
