Evaluation of Owner Satisfaction Following Biofel PCH Vaccination of Cats in SAQTVH and TTPHRC

Abstract

Biofel PCH vaccination of cats related study was conducted directly at the S. A. Quadery Teaching Veterinary Hospital (SAQTVH) of CVASU and Teaching and Training Pet Hospital and Research Center (TTPHRC) of CVASU. Data was collected through questionnaire forms. Because one of the most important measures in preventing and controlling cats’ infectious diseases is vaccination. So, it is important to evaluate owners' satisfaction on cats’ vaccinations. The goal of the current study was to identify parameters that were related to the Biofel PCH vaccination status of cats in Bangladesh and to determine respondents' satisfaction toward vaccination guidelines . A total of 81 questionnaires were statistically analyzed. Only 52% of cats were found to have received the Biofel PCH vaccination, despite the fact that 81% of the owners were aware that their cats were susceptible to infectious diseases. Therefore, it is clear that owners did not give their cats adequate attention. So, our cats are not protected against different infectious diseases. Along with other factors, the Biofel PCH vaccination rate is also affected by issues such as high costs, long travel times, difficult transportation, inappropriate clinic hours, and lengthy waiting times etc. In order to increase cats’ protection against infectious diseases, owner’s awareness should be increased as well as availability of the Biofel PCH vaccine should be increased so that others negative factors such as high cost will be reduced.
