Vaccinations & vet visits in SA

Preventative care keeps your pet healthy and is far cheaper than treating illness. Here is the rough timeline for South Africa.

The early course

Puppies and kittens usually start their vaccination course from six to eight weeks, with boosters a few weeks apart. Your vet will confirm the schedule for your area.

Ongoing care

After the initial course, an annual check-up and booster, plus regular parasite control, covers most needs.

Key takeaway
Always confirm the exact schedule with your own vet. This is general guidance, not medical advice.
