Domestic kittens in developed societies are usually
vaccinated against common illnesses from two to three months of age. The usual
combination vaccination protects against Feline viral rhinotracheitis , Feline
calicivirus , and Feline panleukopenia . This FVRCP inoculation is usually
given at eight, twelve and sixteen weeks, and an inoculation against rabies may
also be given at sixteen weeks. Kittens are usually spayed or neutered at
approximately seven months of age, but kittens as young as seven weeks may be
neutered, especially in animal shelters. Such early neutering does not appear
to have any long-term health risks to cats, and may even be
beneficial in male cats. Kittens are commonly wormed against roundworms from
about four weeks. Source
