Shots For The Barn Cats

by Jon Katz
Shots For Minnie And Flo

Before Red got sick, we had an appointment for shots and worming for the barn cats at the Cambridge Valley Veterinary Hospital. We brought the cats down in crates, and they were wormed and had all of their shots. We believe in letting the cats out to live their lives, especially in the warm weather, but we are careful to keep up on their vaccinations and exams, we have them checked quarterly (we sometimes forget.)

They are, says the vet, strong and healthy, especially Minnie, who had a lot amputated there. I have great affection and admiration for barn cats, they are mystical and remarkable creatures. But they still, we believe, need medical care and regular check-ups.
