Vaccinations for Cats and Dogs

Ensure your pet’s health and happiness with essential vaccinations. At Miami Shores Animal Clinic, we offer vaccinations for cats and dogs to prevent illnesses and meet legal requirements, serving North Miami, Biscayne Park, and beyond.

How Vaccines Work

Vaccines contain parts of pathogens that help your pet’s immune system recognize and fight off real infections. Without vaccines, your pet’s body may struggle to ward off these germs.

Cat Vaccinations

Core vaccines, including the rabies vaccine required by Florida law, are essential for all cats. Begin vaccinating kittens at six to eight weeks with boosters every three to four weeks. The final booster includes the rabies vaccine. After one year, we’ll determine the ideal booster schedule and discuss noncore vaccines based on your cat’s lifestyle.

Dog Vaccinations

All dogs need core vaccinations, including the rabies vaccine. Start vaccinating puppies at six to eight weeks with boosters every three to four weeks, finishing at 16 weeks or later with the rabies vaccine. After one year, we’ll establish a booster schedule and recommend noncore vaccines as needed.
