@Dr. Jeff, @Dr. Christina and @Dr. Jean Hofve -
We rescued a four-week-old kitten about three months ago and we're considering adopting an 8-month-old cat mama from her rescuer. My question is, should I be concerned about parasites (or other transmittable?) when we bring the mama home? My friends who are cat lovers suggested that we get the mama cat vaccinated (which I oppose) and go through the deworming process. Is that necessary?
What is the best way to introduce them - the cat mama and the kitten?
Thanks for your guidance!
