Vaccinering
Følgende
vaccineringer er et must for at katten kan være dækket: 12 og 16 uger og året efter de
16 uger.
Derefter kan der for en indekat der ikke udstilles vaccineres årligt eller måske
kun hvert tredie år med en vaccine uden kattesygedelen, da der iflg. nedenstående
artikel er dækket ind i mange år præcis for kattesygedelen, og der er sundhedsmæssige
problemer med overdreven panleukopenia (kattesyge) vaccinering. Det er altid en god ide at
få et årligt sundhedscheck. Er du i tvivl omkring vaccinering, tal med din dyrlæge.
It has long
been known that chronic renal failure (CRF) in cats has an inflammatory component. Chronic
low-grade inflammation causes gradual destruction and scarring of the kidney, eventually
resulting in loss of function and failure of the organ. However, what was not known was
what caused the inflammation in the first place. This research hints at a potential cause.
Recent research from Colorado State University suggests a link between vaccination for
feline distemper (panleukopenia) and the development
of chronic renal failure. The distemper virus is grown in a feline kidney cell culture to
make the vaccine.
Earlier research at Purdue University showed that puppies given a vaccine grown in calf
serum developed antibodies to calf proteins that also reacted against the puppies' own
cells. These auto-antibodies (antibodies to self, or to one's own tissues) may contribute
to later development of autoimmune diseases. Every subsequent vaccine caused the puppies
to form even more antibodies.
In the Colorado State study, 75% of kittens given an injectable distemper vaccine
developed antibodies to kidney proteins. However, kittens given the intranasal form of the
vaccine did not produce kidney antibodies.
Ongoing work at Cornell University has demonstrated that the immunity produced by the
feline distemper vaccine lasts for many years (the test cats have maintained their
immunity to destemper for more than 9 years without revaccination).
Given the long-lasting immunity provided by the distemper vaccine and the risk of
triggering a harmful inflammatory reaction in the kidneys, it seems prudent to minimize
the vaccines a cat receives. The current recommendation is to vaccinate every 3 years. For
indoor cats, it may be unnecessary to revaccinate at all, once the kitten has had its
distemper series.
Some studies suggest that a single distemper vaccine given after 16 weeks of age, is fully
protective and need not be repeated. The intranasal vaccine appears to be much less likely
to cause this adverse reaction.
