Thinking about getting a pet?
You may already know that the age of your future pet matters a lot.
Let's find out at what age you can wean a puppy or kitten from its mother.
It is believed that you cannot take a kitten or puppy until they reach 3 months of age.
Why? Newborns receive antibodies (protection against disease) from their mother's milk until they develop their own.
But these are not all the reasons. So, at the age of 2 months, a kitten or puppy gets its first vaccination, which helps them develop their own immunity, protecting them from dangerous diseases.
The next vaccination is given at 3 months.
The conclusion is that it is safest to take your pet home only after these two vaccinations.
