Watch your pet closely for 24-48 hours after vaccination for any signs of side effects or adverse reactions.
Mild lethargy, slight fever, and reduced appetite are common and should not be alarming. These usual resolve within a day or two.
Some pets might experience discomfort or swelling at the injection site. Gentle petting can help but avoid excessive handling if the area seems sore.
Rest and Quiet Space:
Provide a quiet, comfortable space for your pet to rest. They may be more tired than usual.
Water and Food:
Ensure they have easy access to water. If your pet shows a reduced appetite, you can encourage eating with a small amount of a favorite treat or soft food.
Although it’s rare, watch for signs of severe allergic reactions such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or legs, severe vomiting or diarrhea, or collapse. If any of these occur, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Avoid Bathing:
Wait a few days before bathing your pet or allowing it to swim to ensure the injection site is fully healed.
Limit Intense Activity:
Keep your pet’s activity level low for a day or two after vaccination to reduce stress on their system.
Scheduled Booster Appointment:
Adhere to any follow-up appointments or booster schedules provided by your vet to ensure ongoing protection.
Keep recently vaccinated pets separate from other pets, if possible, to prevent rough play that might irritate the injection site.
Report Side Effects Inform your veterinarian of any reactions your pet experiences, even if they seem minor. This information is important for your pet’s medical record and future vaccine considerations
