Vaccinations, Are They Killing Our Animals? Options

[Furkidlets' Mom]

There are alarming and ever-increasing numbers of incidences of ill heath and often unexpected and premature death in our animals nowadays. I have a personal concern for all of them, everywhere, whether 'mine' or not. So even if it's not 'popular opinion', I'd like to post this link to information on the (thankfully) growing numbers of veterinarians who are highly concerned with the root causes of growing epidemics of disease in our 'pets'. You may be uncomfortable with what you read (as you SHOULD be!), but it is my hope that like the highly-respected vets who are speaking out, you will take the time to educate yourself and think, as they have been doing, about the links between vaccinating (and over-vaccinating) animals who start out at least relatively healthy, but too soon end up leaving us because of blindly following protocols that, once dissected and studied, make little sense and actually end up harming the ones we love so dearly. I firmly believe that we should take responsibility for our furbabies health and wellness by learning all we can about what we are allowing and choosing for them and by remaining open to more discriminatory ways of thinking, on their behalf. To my mind, they are ALL worth this little bit of effort on our parts.

They constantly help us to grow, in mind, body and spirit and we all want them to live long, joyous and healthy lives. So let us do our part and not be afraid to keep learning and growing, in thanks for all they give us so freely and willingly.

Should they not be vaccinated at all? This is all new information to me, so I'm trying to learn about it before I get a kitten in July. I will probably be getting one from a shelter and they ALWAYS vaccinate them as well as spay/neuter but once I get the kitten home and start taking it for vet visits, should he not be allowed ANY vaccinations at all? Or is it just certain ones? He will be an indoor kitty, if that makes a difference. The only way I will let it out, is if it can learn to deal with a harness and leash. I had also planned to use the monthly? Frontline or Advantage treatments from the vet for fleas/ticks. After Alley... I'm super paranoid about them and want to treat the new one even if he's only indoors. So what's the general opinion on all of this?
