Hello there,

I had some doubt about my cats vaccine shots. One of my kitten got sick and all of them now had ring-worms. I am also, concern because my 10month cat had just recently delivered new kittens.

However, according to my vet vaccine certificate, here is the shots that they received (note: I will type the vaccine full name since I have a confusion about the abbreviation):
  1. Feline Rhinotracheitis-Calic-Panleukopenia
  2. Rabies
  3. Feline Leukemia
Can anyone see if there is something wrong with the vaccine?

I'm no vet expert, but the vaccines you got are a pretty typical selection.

Note that "ringworm" is not a worm, but a fungal infection, much like athletes foot, and it can be treated with either pet-specific topical fungicides from the vet, or most athletes foot topical medications for humans.  You can get it from them, too; it's very contagious.  Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly, and launder any clothing or bedding they have been on.  It takes a few weeks of apply medications at least twice daily.

There is also an oral medication for ringworm that you can get from the vet, and if you get it, your doctor can prescribe a version for you, too.
