Regular readers of my blog will know I (well and the Mister) have three cats, often referred to as my fur-kids (we don't have small people yet) and they are just a little bit spoilt, okay a lot spoilt but their happiness means a lot to me, even if a 5am sing song is not really my idea of fun.
Dude, Dexter and Hector (who has his very own Instagram) are often featured across both mine and Beautykinguk's social media, so instead of getting baby spam, you get cute cat spam instead.
But having cat comes with responsibility. Did you know that there is an estimated 10.5 million cats in the UK with 24% of the population owning cat - wow! Add to that 26% of cats have never been vaccinated, so that is 2.7 million vaccinated cats. Vaccinations for cats are just as vital as those we have as humans to protect us from illness and disease.
Many pet owners believe that if cats are vaccinated as kittens, the immunity received will protect them for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately this is not the case. After vaccination, the immune response reaches a peak and then begins to decline, until the level of immunity is no longer sufficient. Booster vaccination stimulates the immune response so that immunity is maintained. Merial is on a mission to change this! We have launched a national campaign to reach one million cat owners, with the use of social media, to educate them on the importance of vaccination. If you are not sure whether or not your cat is covered, take the quiz at the bottom of the homepage to check, it is just three easy questions and it takes seconds.
