A word about immunity

Immunity to disease, simply means that an animal (or a person) is highly resistant to that particular disease.

A fully vaccinated cat or dog, provided that it has responded to vaccination, should he capable of withstanding normal exposure to those diseases against which it bas been vaccinated.

It is possible for immunity to develop in a non-vaccinated animal but for this to happen, the animal must first encounter the disease and then survive the encounter.

For the potentially life- threatening diseases we are vaccinating against, this is not a serious option.


So immunity does not just happen and yet in many ways nothing could be more natural....
