usually, first shots can be given at that time. about 6 weeks.

Answer 3

Kittens should have their first shots no earlier than 8 or 9 weeks because the antibodies from their mothers are still in their immune system.  Be sure that once you get your kitten its first round of shots you go back about 3 weeks later and get booster shots, or else the vaccines won't have much of an effect.
