Protect your cat against Feline Bordetella: A cause of upper respiratory infection

Feline Bordetella bronchiseptica (FeBb) could pose a significant threat to your cat. Now it's possible for your veterinarian to protect your cat against one of the primary causes of upper respiratory infection (URI).

One of the most common diseases in cats is URI. A recent research study indicated over 85% of cats had been exposed to FeBb. And since it's a highly contagious bacteria, you'll want your cat protected.

Clinical Signs of FeBb
(your cat may exhibit one or more):
• Loss of appetite
Listlessness
Sneezing
Runny eyes
Nasal discharge
Coughing
Difficulty breathing
Fever
Now there's a new vaccine available to protect your cat against FeBb. It's safe for cats of all ages, even kittens, and has been proven effective after 1 dose at 4 weeks of age. It's administered intranasally, which means no needles are used, so it is a painless vaccination for your cat.

Feline Bordetella is a highly contagious bacteria that causes upper respiratory infection, which can lead to pneumonia and may cause death. That's why it's important to have your cat vaccinated. Here at Harmony Animal Hospital, an up-to-date (within 6 months) FeBb vaccine is required for cats boarding with us. Ask one of our veterinarians about it today.
