We took Bentley to the Vet for his yearly Wellness check up and to have his double FHO post op hips looked at. Bentley got a clean bill of health. Both of his hips have healed completely! Bentley can walk, run and jump with no problems. He is one happy boy ;)
I however, have another interesting fact I like to make my Blog readers aware of....Vaccinations!!!
We decided not to give any more booster vaccines to Bentley. He had all of his kitten core vaccinations and his 1 year boosters. He should have enough immunity by now... to last him a lifetime. We live in southern California... so by law we will have to give him the Rabies Vaccine...but not every year! We opted for every 3 years on the Rabies but no further Feline Distemper or Feline Leukemia Vaccines.
Bentley is at a very low risk in contacting any of these diseases. He only is allowed outside on supervised leash walks in our yard. He does not roam freely and he does not come in contact with unknown cats. His chances of catching any of these diseases are very slim.
I provided 5 YouTube links below, where you can listen to 2 Veterinarians talking about the dangers of over vaccinating your pets.
