Vet prices goes from this onwards if you have a completely feral kitten that's never seen a vet in its life:
Desexing: $50 ~ (depending on whether you take it to a shelter that has an inhouse vet. It's important for cats to be desexed: males spray urine around the house if they are not desexed, and females caterwaul while in heat, which literally sounds like a barmy kid yowling.)
Shots: 4 shots exist for cats: The "F4" vaccine, Feline distemper, feline leukaemia and rabies. The F4 is usually the only required vaccine, with the others being entirely optional if it's going to be an indoor cat and/or the vaccine is not applicable in your area.
The F04 vaccination is for basically all sorts of miscellaneous diseases, including cat flu. It has to be taken twice as a kitten. After that, a booster shot is required once a year for the rest of the cat's life.
Each shot costs around $28~.
Worming: $15~ (depends on the price of the tablet or paste. You need to worm kittens at least monthly, and after 5 months or so, about once every 3 months).
Generally, most vets have a package deal in which all appropriate kitten stuff is done at a round $50~$100 depending on area, especially if it's a shelter vet. Ask around.
