Kitten Care

We look forward to being introduced to the newest addition to your family. The veterinarians and health team members at Dr. Ron’s Animal Hospital are eager to help you with getting your kitten started on their journey to a healthy, happy life with your family for years to come.

It is important to have your new kitten examined by a licensed and experienced veterinarian to make sure they are in good health and developing normally.

Our veterinarians will make sure your kittens receive a good healthy start through vaccinations, parasite protection and proper nutrition that is specifically formulated for kittens and young cats.

What to expect on your kitten's initial visit:

• Comprehensive physical exam
• Intestinal parasite screening
• Intestinal parasite worming
• Development of a vaccination program based on your kitten's lifestyle
• Necessary vaccines or vaccine boosters
• Heartworm preventative recommendations
• Recommendations for flea and tick prevention
• Behavior and housetraining recommendations
• Nutritional counseling
• Pet insurance recommendations

For your first kitten visit, we request that you bring the following:

• Your kitten in a crate or carrier
• All paperwork pertaining to the previous care of your kitten including all previous immunizations, deworming, medications and any veterinary records you may have
• Any questions you may have regarding your kitten’s health or behavior
• A fresh stool sample (less than 12 hours old)
