My cat has fleas and needs shots. Can Petco groom and medicate him?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Fat baby! I would call your local PetCo and see if they off the vaccine clinics. They can provide you with a list of services they can provide. Sometimes vaccine clinics only do vaccines and do not provide medicine or see sick animals. You will just need to call and see what your local PetCo offers. I hope this helps and have a great day!

My cat is sick with a URI and on antibiotics. Can she get her vaccine?
Yes this should be fine as long as she is feeling better. Also, you may consider putting her on a daily immune boosting vitamin like viralys or vetriscience lysine treats. It doesn’t treat the virus but it may help to boost her immune system. I hope this helps!

Can I deworm my cat at home and what other vaccines do they need?
Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Yes dewormers can be purchased online. I’d deworm every 6 months if the cats go outside. See the link below on the kind I like. I recommend the FVRCP vaccine as well as the rabies. If Kitty never received this vaccine then he needs two 3-4 weeks apart. The 2nd is good for 1 year the all subsequent are good for 3 years. Have a good day! https://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=3464 https://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=1268

My cat has a recurring rodent ulcer. Should I try lysine or omega?
Poor Vivian! Unfortunately rodent ulcers are usually an auto-immune issue. I certainly think lysine and omega 3 fatty acids are beneficial long term. Vetriscience has some good products for both of those. I would also consider a veterinarian prescribed hypoallergenic diet. I am not sure colloidal silver will help. Some of these guys end up needing multiple steroid (+/- antibiotics) injections throughout the year to keep it under control. If it doesn’t start to clear up I would consider another steroid shot. Cats usually tolerate them well every 6-8 weeks. I hope this helps.
