We Love Healthy Cats and Kittens

Are you a crazy cat lady in Lafayette or a just a regular cat daddy living in Sugar Mill Pond? Either way, Loftin Veterinary Hospital is proud to be a part of your pet family through excellent veterinary care. In fact, we have been caring for cats and kittens in Youngsville, Lafayette, and Broussard since 1997. One of our primary goals is exceptional pet care education. Below, you’ll find some great tips to keep Garfield healthy and happy.

Kitten Care

A routine kitten vaccination series includes vaccinations at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age. The 16 week vaccines include a Rabies vaccination. Kittens are especially susceptible to the diseases listed below (under recommendations for adults cats) so vaccinations are a vital step toward insuring a healthy kitten.
Intestinal parasite treatment or “de-worming” at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age. Kittens should also be screened for other intestinal parasites and treated accordingly at these ages.
We recommend that all male and female cats not intended for planned breeding be spayed or neutered at 6 months of age.
