I am fostering a litter of 9 week kittens. Supposedly they were all vaccinated at animal control at 6 weeks. One of the kittens had a significant vaccine reaction after his booster shot at 9 weeks. Within 15 minutes he was vomiting repeatedly (about 10 times in 30 minutes!), itching, and having significant lethargy. Fortunately after some fluids and rest he recovered quite well. He is now back to his frisky, adorable self.
If he were an older kitty, I would be very hesitant ever vaccinating him again. However, since he is a kitten with virtually no immunity, would it be worth completing his vaccination series or is this too risky after this type of reaction?
