      RECOMBINANT VACCINES Sandy Animal Clinic and Pet Hospital


Over the past several years there has been an association with adjuvanted vaccines in cats and tumors developing at the vaccine site. Although the development of vaccine related tumors are low, they have recently developed vaccines for cats that do not contain the adjuvant mixture. These vaccines are called Recombinant Vaccines. The use of Recombinant vaccines does not guarantee that a cat will not develop a vaccine related tumor but it does drastically decrease their chances.
  • Recombinant Rabies must be given yearly.
  • Recombinant feline distemper purevax can be given every 3 years.
  • Recombinant Feline Leukemia (needleless) must be given yearly.
