Your guide to preventive care for your kitten
Veterinary guidance is essential for raising a happy, healthy cat. When you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure about how to handle a new kitten challenge, having convenient access to expert support makes all the difference.
While all kittens still need in-person care for vaccines, checkups, spaying or neutering (when appropriate), and illnesses, Vetster helps you stay proactive between visits and sets the foundation for lifelong wellness. Here are examples of common product costs that may be part of a new kitten care plan.
-
Parasite prevention and deworming generally costs between $10 and $25 for a short deworming course, and $15 to $30 per month for a broad-spectrum monthly preventive.
-
Kitten food generally costs between $20 and $50 per bag of dry food, or approximately $1 to $3 per can of wet food.

This information is provided for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional veterinary care. Always consult a licensed veterinarian before starting any medication, as treatment plans should always be tailored to your individual pet's needs. Product availability, appropriateness, and legal access to prescription medications may vary based on your location and the nature of your pet’s health issue. In some locations, a valid VCPR must be established in person before prescription medications can be provided.

FAQ
Vetster provides pet parents with convenient access to licensed veterinary professionals through virtual appointments. You can connect with a veterinarian from home, discuss your kitten's needs, receive personalized guidance, and, when appropriate and legally permitted, obtain prescriptions through VetsterRx.
An online vet visit helps with new kitten care by giving you direct access to veterinary guidance for common concerns like nutrition, litter training, behavior, socialization, teething, and routine care. Virtual appointments can help you make informed decisions and feel more confident as your kitten grows.
Online vets may be able to prescribe medication for kittens when it is clinically appropriate and permitted by local regulations. Your veterinarian will evaluate your kitten's needs during the appointment and recommend treatment options, which may include prescriptions fulfilled through VetsterRx.
If you have a question about your kitten outside of regular clinic hours, Vetster allows you to connect with a licensed veterinarian any time of day. VetsterPlus members also receive unlimited live messaging access for quick pet health questions between appointments.
If your new kitten is having an emergency, a virtual vet visit can help you quickly assess the situation and determine the most appropriate next steps. Your veterinarian can evaluate your kitten over video and help you decide whether immediate in-person emergency care is needed.
Vetster does not replace your kitten's regular veterinary visits because kittens still need in-person care for vaccinations, wellness exams, spaying or neutering, and illnesses that require hands-on treatment. Virtual care works best alongside routine veterinary care by providing guidance and support between clinic visits.
