Answer

Hi,

Kittens should receive their first vaccination at about 7 weeks of age. They will get a distemper combination vaccine at this time. They will need to go back to the vet every 3-4 weeks until they've had a total of three vaccinations.   They should get a rabies vaccination sometime after they are 14 weeks old. The other vaccinations that are available for cats are more important if you plan on letting your kitten go outside. Here is a link to a page about vaccinations:
