New kitten?

At Tamar Vets, we are always delighted to meet new additions to the family. If you’ve recently welcomed a new kitten into your home, we’d love to meet them! We’re here to support your little one throughout their life, and can’t wait to welcome them to the Tamar Vets family. 

What to expect on your first visit

You will have a consultation with one of our vets.

They will weigh your kitten, discuss fleas, worms, insurance, microchipping, diet, behaviour, neutering… anything you like really! The vet will give your new addition a full top to tail health checkup, and once the vet is satisfied that they are in good health, they will receive their first vaccination.

You will receive a kitten pack.

This is a really useful pack for any new owner. We have spent time keeping it up to date with the most useful product information leaflets for you. We have also included fact sheets about neutering plus a complimentary voucher for your feline friend to try Virbac HPM Baby diet.

What to expect on your second visit

You will need to book a second vaccination three weeks after the first. Your kitten will be re-weighed and checked before the vet administers their second vaccination. Our vets will also be available to answer any new questions that you may have for them.

We understand that bringing home a new family member is an exciting and often new experience, so we try to make your visits to the vets as helpful as possible.

Our kitten vaccination course starts with a first vaccination from 9 weeks of age, with the second vaccination 3 weeks later. Your little bundle of joy will be ready to explore the great outdoors 7 days after their second vaccination.
