Is not having a pet vaccinated abuse?

Not having your pet vaccinated is neglect. This is when you do not take care of something or someone for whom you are responsible. Pets cannot prevent illness by themselves; they cannot make medicine or heal themselves if they become seriously ill. Pet vaccinations prevent most serious illnesses and keep them from spreading to others.

In some ways it is. You should take your pet to the vet once a year at least. If you aren't able to do that, then don't get a pet. Going to the vet helps your animal and animals around him/her. You don't want you pet making other pets sick, or have your pet being sick.

It is a little bit -if you dont, your animal will get sick and can possibly die. If you don't want your furry little companion to have that illness, then go to the vet every year at least.

I believe so. If the animal gets sick of somthing that could have been prevented, it is your fault because he/she was not protected. Vaccination is like your flu shot.
