Feline Distemper (FVRCP)
What Is the FVRCP Vaccine? (Feline Distemper Vaccine)
The FVRCP vaccine—also called the feline distemper vaccine or feline “combo” vaccine—is a core vaccine recommended for all cats. FVRCP stands for:
- FVR — Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (feline herpesvirus)
- C — Calicivirus
- P — Panleukopenia (feline distemper)
These are highly contagious and potentially fatal diseases. The FVRCP vaccine protects your cat against all three in a single injection.
